The pace may be deliberate, but the competition is expected to be fierce as the Bermuda Walking Football League officially gets underway this Saturday, March 7th. The Bermuda College Gymnasium will serve as the hub for this season's opening fixtures, providing a controlled environment for a sport that continues to gain significant traction among the island’s more experienced athletes.
The day’s festivities will commence with a formal opening ceremony at 8:30 am, setting the stage for a triple-header of intriguing matchups. The competitive action begins promptly at 9:00 am as the host side, Bermuda College, looks to make a statement in their season opener against the Original All-Stars. This curtain-raiser promises to be a tactical affair, with both sides eager to secure an early advantage in the standings.
The momentum continues into the mid-morning slot at 10:00 am, where Touring will face off against the Grunts in what many observers expect to be a closely contested encounter. The morning’s slate of matches will then conclude with an 11:00 am kick-off between the Newbies and the Late Starts. For the Newbies, it represents a first real test of their credentials on the gymnasium floor, while the Late Starts will be keen to prove that timing is everything in the quest for walking football glory.
