  1. Our man on the groundpublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 25 May 2015

    BBC Get Inspired's Tom Reynolds is joined by Kevin Henry who has just won the Walking Football category with his team, Codnor FC.

    Kevin is the oldest member of the team and hasn't played football for over 30 years before this team was formed for the People's Cup.

    "The mind is a bit younger than the body at times but I'll definitely be carrying on playing now - we've got to, we're the cup holders. It's made me feel a bit childish now and again playing in this."

    Here is Kevin with his two proud grandsons!
