SOCCERLOCO CLOSING DOWN

On Wednesday last Wirral Walking Football Club was given the sad news that Soccerloco is ceasing to trade and will be closing down at the end of July. We would like to thank Paul, Sam and all the other staff for their help in promoting Wirral Walking Football Club and we wish them every success for the future. We have enjoyed our time there and have made many new friends.

However, all is not doom and gloom. We have already secured another indoor venue with 3g astro pitches on the Wirral and we will post more details on here in the near future.

Therefore our last session at Soccerloco will be on Wednesday 13th July 2016 between 10-11am.

WIRRAL SOCCERLOCO FINISH LEAGUE SPRING SEASON

The third and final phase of the Cheshire F.A. Walking Football League took place on Thursday 19th May 2016 at Cheshire F.A. Headquarters in Northwich. Wirral Soccerloco were again in attendance and on this occasion met with varying degrees of success. Three defeats by the odd goal and a draw did not reflect on how good the performance actually was, and all four games were eminently winnable. A few different formations were tried out on the day, but the general idea was to give all ten participants game time. Nev R broke our goalscoring duck with a very well taken shot against Chester F.C. which went in via the post. Everyone performed OK on the day, but special mention must go to Frank H who was a stalwart in defence and hardly put a foot wrong. Special mention also must go to Andy J, who decided to retire from competitive walking football after the event, and will now be installed as Wirral Walking Football Club's (Wirral Soccerloco) full-time manager along with all the benefits and remunerations that the job entails. The board, having considered other applications from, in particular Josie M and Claudia R, felt Andy should be rewarded for all his hard work over the past two years.

SUCCESS FOR WIRRAL SOCCERLOCO IN WALKING FOOTBALL LEAGUE

The second instalment of the Cheshire F.A. Walking Football League Spring 2016 season took place at Northwich on Thursday 21st April 2016. Wirral Soccerloco were again proud to field a team and after initially securing only one point at the first Championship round, managed to increase that to six points at the completion of the second phase. A win over Chester and draws with Northwich and Nantwich were well deserved with only a defeat to Northgate Rovers, initiated by a fiercely deflected shot, slightly souring the day. With only nine fit players to choose from, owing to Kevin's injury, the team played to a system which worked very well on the day. Kev (the one who looks a bit like Jurgen Klopp on the photo) was not to be left out and stood in as temporary manager, efficiently directing operations from the sidelines. The performance leaves Soccerloco only two points adrift of Chester in fourth place. Congratulations to all involved for their support and dedication
