To Spond or Not to Spond, that is the question... well I've often seen that question, so here's my take on how it's worked at Lewes.
What I would really like to know, is you're experiences using the fund raising on SPOND, please share your thoughts, good or bad

Tim spent 33 years as a paramedic. Retired exhausted, overweight, pre-diabetic.

Then he found walking cricket & football.
Lost 23kg.
Scored at the Pan Siro at 62.
Rebuilt his health and his joy.

From rock-solid defender to four goals in one match — after 50 years away! 🎩⚽
Walking football isn’t retirement. It’s revival.

🏆 Walking football isn’t “just for fun.”
At the WFA National Cup Finals, players from Over 40s to Over 70s showed passion, skill & competition of the highest quality.
Shout to champs: Leggy Mambos, Kingston, Bexley, Wakefield & Nottingham Reds 👏
