The Street Soccer Foundation is proud to announce that courtesy of The Big Goal, the Academy programme continues to expand, with new and additional Street Soccer Academies launching across the country this term! From the heart of Liverpool to the streets of London, young people in communities that need it most are getting the chance to join a supportive environment where football is the catalyst for change.
These Academies provide more than just a place to play football—they offer a holistic approach to youth development. Participants gain access to mentorship, personal development workshops, and opportunities to enhance life skills that can help them thrive in all aspects of life. With expert coaches on hand, the Academies are designed to build confidence, improve well-being, and inspire a sense of community.
The new Academies are already up and running in several cities, including London, Sunderland, Leicester and Manchester, with plans to expand even further in 2025. Each Academy is tailored to the needs of its local community, creating a safe and inclusive space where every participant can learn, develop and grow.
This expansion wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our Founding Members and sponsors, whose contributions continue to make a real difference in the lives of young people.
