WFS O70’s East Premiership

Our Over 70’s East of Scotland Premiership kicked off today at Oriam National Performance Centre and after round one, Fife Wanderers top the league.

With growth in amount of teams participating in this age category this year, we were able to split regionally and it was great to welcome the 6 teams to Edinburgh.

There were a few ‘firsts’ today with final games having to be abandoned after an unplanned fire alarm but positively today we wecolmed our first female referee, Karin McKenny to competitive action and congratulate her making history for walking football in Scotland.

Karin attended our Referee Workshop at the start of the year, off the back of passing her Scottish FA referee qualification, and we were delighted to welcome her as one of our referees today for the first time.

We thank all players and clubs for their cooperation today with unforeseen events and look forward in welcoming you back on 10th May.
