Irish Street league uses the power of sport to transform the lives of individuals who have encountered difficulties and fallen on hard times. It's about rebuilding lives using sport as a catalyst for change.
Street leagues are not about fixing peoples problems. It is part of the solution. It's about boosting self-esteem, self-confidence and self-discipline.
Developing a sense of self worth. Feeling good about one self is one of the fundamental building blocks to moving on in life.
Our ultimate goal is to empower people to fulfill their true potential thus enabling them to take responsibility for their own futures with confidence.
Colin Farrell, supporting Ireland at the Homeless World Cup 2015 “It is about giving a sense of purpose, inclusion and community through football.”
'I am proud to be a patron of the Homeless Street League Program and am humbled by the efforts of those involved. It is inspirational and shows what can be achieved when solidarity and a common vision combine for the greater good.' "President Michael D Higgins"
