Meet our new sponsors

We've been working hard during the summer to help our footy family take the next step and continue to help all women into sport in our area.

We've been working especially hard connecting with our community not just here at home in Workington, but through Cumbria which reflects the love our club has and how our efforts are being recognised locally.

Over the next few weeks we're going to showcase our new sponsors and members of our footy family as we gear up to our new kit launch.

So let's get this going!!

First, we are absolutely thrilled to welcome Medispace to the Workington St Joseph's Women's Walking Football Club family as our newest official sponsor!

Soccer Saturday update.......

🏆 TOURNAMENT WINNERS & FAIR PLAY AWARD! 🏆

What a day for the Cumbria Ladies at the Huddersfield Women’s Walking Football Tournament.

Playing 5-a-side with no substitutes, we had to dig deep throughout the day. We played three group games and finished top of our group before progressing through the semi-final and securing the win in the final! 🏆

We were also incredibly proud to receive the Fair Play Award for sportsmanship. It was a fantastic recognition of the attitude and spirit shown by the team throughout the tournament.

The Cumbria Ladies team consisted of three Workington St Josephs Women’s Walking Football players.
Kate Smith, Helen Watson and Katie Jones, alongside our guest players Nat Broad and Emma Parkes.

A brilliant day, an incredible team effort and a result we can all be hugely proud of! ⚽️🏆

Great to see Clare Moss and Rachel A Farragher working hard with their North East WFA regional teammates as they prepare for their WFA Super Cup Final League Games in Gloucester on 24th October. 🏆

We’re all proud of you at Workington St Josephs Women’s Walking Football
Keep up the graft! 🙌🏼💪🏼🦄

💗FRIDAY NIGHT FOOTY IS BACK! 💜

What a brilliant night getting back together for our Friday night training session! ⚽️🙌

After the summer break, it was fantastic to have the footy family back together again — and even better to see some new faces joining us! 🥰

A huge WELCOME to our new players. We hope you enjoyed your first taste of St Joseph’s Women’s Walking Football and felt right at home. Welcome to our little footy family! 💕⚽️

There was some fantastic football on show tonight, with plenty of energy, commitment and some seriously good play. We spent the session holding the mirror up to ourselves — looking at what we already do well, but also being honest about where we can improve, both individually as players and collectively as a team. 💪

There’s always room to learn, develop and get better… and that’s exactly what we’re all about. 👊

Of course, it wouldn’t be a St Jo’s session without plenty of giggles, laughs and questionable moments along the way! 😂🤣

And naturally, we finished the evening exactly how we like to… back in the Miners Arms Pub Workington for a post-match pint! 🍻❤️

A brilliant way to kickstart the new season.

📅 See you all next Friday!
⏰ Same time
📍 Same place
⚽️ More football
😂 More laughs
💗💜 And hopefully our newbies will be back for more!

🏆 SUNDAY FOOTBALL

We’re straight back into competitive action this Sunday, with some of our team making the short trip to Penrith to take part in the Over 35s 5-a-side running competition, hosted by Cumberland FA in partnership with Westmorland County FA.

And there’s a little bit of history to defend… 👀🏆

We won it last time out! 💪🔥

So, good luck to our ladies heading to Penrith — go out there, enjoy yourselves, play our football and see if you can bring that trophy home again! 🏆💗💜 for everyone else, enjoy your weekend 🫶

COME ON ST JO’S! ⚽️🦄💗💜

⚽💗 THROWBACK THURSDAY! 💜⚽

Let’s take a trip back to last year’s FA Walking Football Cup Regional Finals over in Sunderland! 🏆

We went into the day knowing we’d have to be at our best against some of the strongest teams around — and what a performance it was! 🙌

A tight, hard-fought battle against Newcastle Swifts went right down to the wire, but our girls dug deep, stayed composed and found the goals when it mattered…

A brilliant result that secured our place in the FA Cup Finals at the home of English football — St George’s Park! 🏟️🦁

That day gave us the belief that we could compete with the very best, and it’s a memory we’ll never forget. 💪

And now… we’re going again! 👀🔥

Our next FA Cup Regional game is at the end of this month, and we absolutely cannot wait to get back out there and test ourselves against the best once again.

New season. New challenge. Same determination. 💗💜

Let’s see what we can do! 🏆⚽

Come on St Jo’s! 💪💗💜

02/09/2026

💗💜 WE’RE BACK ON HOME SOIL! ⚽️ 💜💗

After a little summer break, Workington St Joseph’s Women’s Walking Football training is BACK! 🙌🔥

We’ve certainly not been putting our feet up over the summer! 😜 We’ve been busy representing St Joseph’s in both the Northumbria and Cumbria Leagues, while also joining forces with the brilliant Whitehaven men’s team for Wednesday night training. Our coaches had been off representing ENGLAND and we can’t wait for them to put into practice their experiences and learning with the team.

But now… it’s time to come home! 🏡⚽️

This Friday we’re back at our home pitch and we absolutely CANNOT WAIT to get everyone back together! 💗💜

And if you’ve been thinking about giving walking football a go… there really has never been a better time to join us! 👀🙌

Whether you’ve played football before, haven’t kicked a ball in years, or are completely new to the game, you’ll get a warm welcome at St Joseph’s. It’s football, fitness, friendship, plenty of laughs and a fantastic bunch of women! 🥰⚽️

We’ve also got some exciting announcements coming very soon 👀📣 and LOTS to look forward to over the next few months!

So we’re looking forward to seeing all the familiar faces back on Friday… and hopefully welcoming a few NEW faces too! 💗💜

📍 St Joseph’s School Astro
📅 This Friday
⏰ 6–7pm

Come along, get involved and see what we’re all about! First session is always free 🙌

St Joseph’s Women’s Walking Football — where the football never stops and neither does the fun! 💗💜⚽️
