Synthesis of the case study
The 'Extra Time Programme' launched in 2008, aims to use the power of football clubs to target older people (aged 55 and more) with physical activity and social inclusion projects across the UK. The fundamental motivation for involvement in the programme, as expressed by the participants, was ‘to make new friends and have fun’, which underlines the importance of social networking elements in programmes for older people.
