Seniors Festival – Walking Basketball

Get ready to enjoy a low-impact, social twist on the world’s favourite team sport! Our Walking Basketball program offers a fun, inclusive, and relaxed way to stay active while connecting with others. Whether you’re a former player wanting to get back on the court or trying basketball for the very first time, you’ll love the friendly, supportive environment we’ve created.

What is Walking Basketball?

Walking Basketball takes all the fun of basketball — passing, shooting, teamwork — and removes the running, jumping, and contact, so it’s easy on the joints and open to all fitness levels. It’s a great way to improve your coordination, cardiovascular health, and social connections, all at a pace that suits you. The game is easy to pick up, making it suitable for everyone, from complete beginners to former players easing back into the sport.
