🏆 Tonight there will be World Cup champions…
But today we’d like to celebrate a different kind of champion.
❤️ The person who came to their first DodgyTickers session despite being nervous.
❤️ The person recovering from heart surgery who kept going.
❤️ The member living with diabetes who chose to become more active.
❤️ The person who thought football was over for them…
…until they found us.
Those are the champions we celebrate every week.
Because winning isn’t always about lifting trophies.
Sometimes…
Winning means taking the first step.
Winning means making new friends.
Winning means feeling healthier.
Winning means smiling again.
Enjoy the Final tonight.
Then ask yourself one question…
What could your next victory look like?

❤️ What if your best days aren’t behind you?
The World Cup Semi-finals are where dreams become reality.
But here’s something we’ve learnt at DodgyTickers…
Some of the biggest victories never happen in front of thousands of fans.
They happen when someone who thought they could never play again takes their first kick of a football.
Or when someone who felt isolated discovers a group of people who understand.
Or when someone who lacked confidence starts looking forward to every session.
Those moments matter.
Every week we meet people who tell us:
“I never thought I’d do this again.”
Then they do.
And they leave smiling.
That’s why we believe football can still be part of your life.
Not exactly as it used to be.
But perhaps even more meaningful than before.
If you’ve been watching the World Cup and wondering whether there’s something out there for you…
This is your invitation.
Come and meet us.
Come and meet people just like you.
You don’t have to do this on your own.
❤️ Football inspired the world. Let it inspire your next step.

❤️ Football brings people together.
That’s true whether you’re playing in a World Cup Quarter-final…
Or taking your first steps back into being active.
One of the questions we’re asked most often is:
“Do I need to know anyone before I come?”
Absolutely not.
Because that’s exactly why DodgyTickers exists.
Every week strangers become teammates.
Teammates become friends.
Friends become each other’s biggest supporters.
Some people arrive feeling nervous.
Some haven’t exercised for years.
Some have lost confidence after heart surgery or another diagnosis.
Within minutes they’re chatting, laughing and discovering they’re surrounded by people who genuinely understand.
That’s what makes DodgyTickers different.
Yes, we love football.
But the friendships we build are just as important as the goals we score.
Watching the World Cup this week?
Remember…
The strongest teams aren’t built on talent alone.
They’re built on trust.
We’d love you to become part of ours.

⚽ Sometimes changing the rules changes everything.
The World Cup Round of 16 is all about adapting.
Teams change their tactics.
Managers make brave decisions.
Players find another way to win.
Life after heart disease or another long-term health condition can feel exactly the same.
You may not be able to play football the way you once did.
But that doesn’t mean football has to disappear from your life.
At DodgyTickers, we’ve adapted the game so more people can enjoy it safely.
❤️ Three levels.
❤️ Different abilities.
❤️ Different health conditions.
❤️ One amazing community.
Some of our members hadn’t kicked a football for decades.
Some thought they never would again.
Now they can’t wait for the next session.
Because it’s not just about football.
It’s about laughter.
Friendship.
Confidence.
Fresh air.
Belonging.
Watching the World Cup this weekend?
Remember…
Even the best teams succeed because they adapt.
Maybe it’s your turn.
❤️ Football inspired the world. Let it inspire your next step.

⚽ Every football journey starts somewhere…
Today the World Cup enters the Round of 32.
Every country still dreaming of lifting the trophy had to take that very first step.
So did every single DodgyTicker.
Many of our members arrived saying things like…
❤️ “I’m not fit enough.”
❤️ “I’ve had a heart attack.”
❤️ “I’ve got diabetes.”
❤️ “I’m too old.”
❤️ “I haven’t kicked a football for 30 years.”
Today?
They’re laughing.
They’re moving.
They’re making friends.
They’re enjoying football again.
Not because we expect everyone to play normal football…
Because we’ve changed the game.
At DodgyTickers we offer THREE different levels of adapted football, designed specifically so people with different health conditions, ages and abilities can enjoy being active safely.
There’s no pressure.
No judgement.
No shouting from the sidelines.
Just encouragement.
Friendship.
Fresh air.
Movement.
And plenty of smiles.
If you’ve been watching the World Cup thinking…
“I wish there was something like that for me…”
There is.
And we’d love to meet you.
❤️ Football inspired the world. Let it inspire your next step.

⚽ Watching the World Cup this weekend?
Be honest…
Have you found yourself saying…
“I wish I could still play football.”
You’re not alone.
Many of our members thought their football days had ended after:
❤️ A heart attack
❤️ Heart surgery
❤️ Stents
❤️ Diabetes
❤️ Another long-term health condition
Today they’re back enjoying football every week.
Not because we’ve ignored their health.
Because we’ve adapted the game around it.
At DodgyTickers we run THREE different levels of adapted football.
Every session is designed to be:
✅ Safe
✅ Friendly
✅ Inclusive
✅ Great fun
We’ve got members in their 50s.
Their 60s.
Their 70s.
Men.
Women.
Complete beginners.
Former players.
Everyone is welcomed.
Football has an incredible way of bringing people together.
This World Cup…
Why not let it inspire YOUR next chapter?
