Change 100 lives using football
CHANGE 100 LIVES USING FOOTBALLHow do I do that?Street League uses football to turn around 16-25 year old offenders, drug users and NEETs lives (that’s people not in education, employment or training). They engage young people in weekly footy matches and get together around 100 people for match days to build confidence, explore different paths out of their problems, offer support to get them into education and work. The power of footy, friendship and regular commitment makes a big difference. 72% of young people helped by Street League have the confidence to go back into employment or education. What does it cost?Each match day helps around 100 young people. It costs £500 to hold a Match Day which includes pitch hire, referees, trophies, refreshments and first aid staff. When will I see the difference?When we’ve raised £500 to hold our next Match Day on 14th September at Kennington Park in London. What will I see?We’ll tell you about the highlights of the Match Day, showing you pictures from the tournament, telling you what the players thought of the day and introducing you to the winners.
Tell me more...Through its structured football programmes, Street League builds the confidence, life skills and relevant qualifications necessary for moving young people into sustainable training, further education and employment.
