STREETSOCCER SCOTLAND & THE ACADEMY
Posted by Scotland - 04/04/2009
Street Soccer Scotland is a Social Enterprise which aims to use sport to tackle social exclusion and thereby improve the lives of a range of socially disadvantaged groups.
The ultimate goal of Street Soccer Scotland is to enhance the life of each of the individual participants in the programme while simultaneously benefiting the wider community.
Sport, and in particular street soccer, has the power to dramatically change people’s lives for the better.
By involving participants in regular grass root coaching and mentoring as well as regular matches between teams representing various communities throughout Scotland, Street Soccer Scotland aims to provide a fundamental source of purpose, motivation and pride for participants and produce a positive impact on society as a whole.
