The Club That Made Britain Smile
Old Tossers has been featured on UK television, bringing pebble skimming into the nation's living rooms and proving that you're never too old for a bit of competitive fun.
What On Earth Is Old Tossers?
We're a community of over-60s who love pebble skimming, seaside adventures, and having a proper laugh. The name? It's all about tossing stones, of course — what were you thinking?
Founded by a group of friends who refused to act their age, Old Tossers has grown into one of the UK's most beloved over-60s communities.

Tosser of the Month
Derek “The Skimmer” Thompson
Derek, 73, from Scarborough, has been skimming stones since he was a lad. His personal best? A magnificent 18 skips on a calm day at Filey Bay. “The secret,” he says, “is finding the right pebble. Flat, smooth, and about the size of a digestive biscuit.”
When he's not at the beach, Derek can be found in his allotment or arguing about cricket at the local pub. A true Old Tosser through and through.
