Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	At Street Football Wales (SFW), our vision is of a fair and inclusive Wales and our mission is to use football, to create positive social change in Wales. We offer opportunity for people who have been socially isolated and excluded, by providing an open, inclusive and safe environment to come and play football, make friends, build self-confidence and to support people on their own personal journeys. We do this by building a community around football, that includes our players, referees, volunteers, our sponsors, supporters and followers. April 2023 to March 2024 was a period of opportunity and development for SFW, but also one of change and potential opportunity. The highlight of the year was SFW taking two teams to Sacramento in the USA toparticipate

in the Homeless World Cup, one of only a handful of teams selected to take a male and a female team to participate. Whilst international tournaments were a highlight, SFW was keen to bring its activities to local communities too. SFW ran several inclusion based tournaments in both North Wales (Rhyl) and South Wales (Swansea). Inclusion tournaments were held in September and November 2023, and March 2024 attracted approximately 60 participants per tournament. SFW has continued its strong female sport and representation during this period too, with weekly sessions for women only throughout the year. In November and December 2023, Women only Games Nights were held as the culmination of this project.
