Keith Mabbutt, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Street Soccer Foundation says: 
 
“Our Football For Good Leagues are set to revolutionise the way we play the beautiful game, as it won’t be just about the winning team, but about creating leagues that have a social heartbeat - where every goal scored contributes to positive change in the players’ local community. 
 
Football has an incredible power to unite people and communities and our Football For Good Leagues will harness this power to address social challenges, helping local individuals and communities on a national and international scale. 
 
Our leagues will provide an opportunity for players to socialise, stay fit and healthy, challenge themselves and network - all the while knowing they are supporting the next generation in their local area to have a more positive future. 
 
We’re now calling on people to gather their friends, colleagues or fellow football enthusiasts to form a squad that plays not just for victory on the field but for positive social change off it.”
