Changing lives
Through Football
The Big Goal is a nationwide initiative created by The Street Soccer Foundation, designed to tackle one of the UK’s most pressing social issues – youth homelessness.
By combining the unifying power of football with tailored mentorship and life-skills training, The Big Goal empowers vulnerable and homeless young people to rebuild their lives and achieve their potential.
The Big Goal is more than just a campaign – it’s a mission to drive real social impact.
With your support, we can help vulnerable youth gain the skills, confidence, and opportunities to succeed.
The Street Soccer Academy is delivered nationwide in partnership with clubs up and down the country and is the No.1 football-led project tackling youth homelessness in England.
The Academy is a 10-week personal development training programme providing a combination of Football Coaching; Mindset Training; and Soft Skills Development Workshops.
The programme is for 18–30 year olds who are currently experiencing homelessness and those deemed at risk of becoming homeless, including ex-young offenders, asylum seekers and refugees, long-term unemployed and NEETS (Not in Education, Employment or Training).
The aim is to support and motivate participants to improve their lifestyles and to enhance communities nationwide by empowering others to believe in themselves. To help young people build their confidence, communication and self-belief, and to improve their physical health and mental well-being.
The goal is to help programme participants learn not just for knowledge, but for positive action, to help change their lives for the better through the power of football.
