The venue is hosting the second week of the Walking Football World Nations Cup, with teams from 20 countries competing across three categories: Ladies Over 50s, Ladies Over 60s, and Men’s Over 60s. Matches kick off on Tuesday culminating with the finals on Friday, 31 October. Spain delivered a courageous performance in week one, despite experiencing mixed results with the Spain men’s Over 50s team claiming a well-earned bronze medal after a hard-fought 1–0 victory over Scotland in the third-place playoff. Meanwhile, the Spanish women’s Over 40s team—formed only a few weeks ago—also put in a highly respectable showing. They finished fourth overall, narrowly missing out on a medal after a 2–0 defeat to the Czech Republic in their bronze final.
