How We Work

We deliver our sessions at your organisation’s venue or in inspiring spaces like professional football club grounds and community football facilities.

Using real stories from professional footballers around the world, we connect on a human level—not just a sport one. Those who don’t follow football find meaning in the metaphors and life lessons we explore.

Our approach includes:

  • Whole-group delivery (95%) to create shared understanding

  • Targeted support (5%) to offer additional input to individuals who need more

  • Legacy work, ensuring the learning continues after the sessions end

Who It’s For

  • Young people aged 10+

  • Staff and professionals working with youth or in high-pressure environments

  • Community groups, schools, PRUs, and sports academies

  • Organisations looking to embed emotional intelligence in their culture

What We Cover

Our programs go beyond basic awareness to help participants:

  • Understand what mental health is—and what it isn’t

  • Explore the uniqueness of emotions and how to express them

  • Build personal resilience

  • Develop empathy, especially across cultural or social differences

  • Learn self-regulation and stress management techniques

We tailor our content to match the context and culture of your group. For example, when working with at-risk young men in inner cities, we deliver “Street Health,” a culturally relevant framework that bridges mental health with the realities of their daily lives.

““I thought the Soccology sessions were brilliant… they (students) have opened up a lot more and said that they have found certain topics such as ‘love’ extremely interesting and a lot of my students have said it has encouraged them to think about their feelings a lot more.””
— - Rachel Catling, SCL Education Through Sport (Millwall Community Trust)
