More about Street Soccer Scotland
Street Soccer Scotland is a non-profit social enterprise that delivers a range of football related services to socially disadvantaged adults and young people across Scotland. It was established in March 2009, inspired by personal experience of the power of sport and football to create real change and a desire to provide a unique response to the social disadvantage prevalent in Scottish society.
We believe sport can INSPIRE. Inspire people to be all they can be, to achieve their goals both on and off the pitch, and inspire others to do the same.We believe sport can MOTIVATE. By increasing motivation, this often leads to improved chances of success. We believe sport can DEVELOP. Develop new skills, develop and increase confidence, self-esteem and develop better self-efficacy whilst developing trust. We believe sport can UNITE
. Unite people from different backgrounds to come together and work together. Most importantly, we believe sport provides OPPORTUNITY, an opportunity to participate, an opportunity to tackle exclusion, an opportunity for change.
