Hereford Walking Cricket Club

Walking Cricket is a low-impact version of traditional cricket designed to accommodate players of all ages and abilities, especially older adults or those with reduced mobility.

True to its name, running is not required; players walk to score runs and move between positions. The game retains the essence of cricket, including batting, bowling, and fielding, but with simplified rules and a slower pace to ensure inclusivity and enjoyment for everyone.

Developed as part of efforts to promote physical activity among individuals who may find conventional sports too strenuous, Walking Cricket is becoming increasingly popular across the UK and beyond.

With its focus on fun, fitness, and camaraderie, the sport creates an inclusive environment where participants can enjoy the thrill of the game without overexertion.
