Arran’s favourite pastime, football, has seen a rise in popularity with the formation of a youth football team and, on the opposite end of the spectrum, Arran Walking Football Group.
The walking football group is primarily aimed at over 55s and gives people the chance to enjoy the thrills and skills of football but without any running.
While running is not allowed, players are still able to take a dive to try and gain an advantage but with one of the oldest players approaching 70, this is not advised for everyone.
