Fighting Fit Football

Following his Parkinson's diagnosis Nick Light has been determined to fight Parkinson's through regular exercise, Fighting Fit Football is his way of helping others to do the same

Fighting Fit Football is a friendly and supportive, award winning community team whose aim is to encourage people with Parkinson's to play football irrespective of their ability.

We currently offer both 5/7 a-side and walking football at our twice weekly sessions in the Watford / St Albans areas. It doesn’t matter whether you play regularly or used to play in the past, are a newbie or just fancy a kick about, everyone is welcome to play. Although players are likely to be predominantly from the more active and /or younger members of the Parkinson's community there is no age limit and both men and women are welcome.

Following his own diagnosis aged 45, Club founder and manager Nick Light has been determined to fight the disease through regular exercise and Fighting Fit Football is his way of helping others to do this. You can find out more by watching the video made the FA below:
