    Scenes! Some young footballers from our London project buzzing with their new boots thanks to a generous donation from @Nike 1700 pairs of boots made for some of the biggest names in European Football, are finding new ways to inspire across Scotland & London. More than a game ❤️

    1/2 Struggling to find the words to describe how sad we all are to lose Ally Dawson today after a battle with illness. Known to many as an honest hard working player for @RangersFC & Scotland but known to us as a humble, selfless gent who became a father to many @streetsoccerSCO

    Emails on train cancelled after meeting 20 happy mini footballers from fife on way to the @streetsoccerSCO women’s festival. Deputy teacher from the primary school says over 40 girls wanted to go. Impact of women’s sport coverage this year is phenomenal ❤️⚽️ #shecanshewill

    'The Homeless' I would love to ban the use of this term. Adds stigma and categorises people. People are People. Let's help people.

    Catching up on Twitter and wanna say thanks for the messages regarding MBE in New Years Honours List. When times where tough, people gave me support, opportunity and friendship - all we hope to do is repeat that for others. Recognition should be for the team/players not me. 🙏🏽

    Interviewer: what message would you give to young girls watching tonight? Don’t give up on your dreams 👍🏽 Great message from one of best players in #WWC2019 @erincuthbert_ after tonight’s #SCOARG game. Gutted but hopeful 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    2/2 Thinking of his family and all who knew him and loved him at this time. He supported and cared for so many of us at Street Soccer including me and he will be dearly, dearly missed 😢 #RIPAlly

    Kinda sad that this is all I have for #MeAt20 no pics, just faded memories of fear and uncertainty after becoming homeless. Things are tough for us all just now, and I hope we all get through this. But just remember that all year round young people need support through crisis. ❤️

    The positive impact footballers can have in society has been well documented recently and rightly so. Today our wee charity has a new member of the family. Delighted to welcome Andy Robertson as an official ambassador for @streetsoccerSCO #WelcomeAndy #SameTeam

    Sarah is one of many inspiring women I have been lucky enough to meet in the past 10yrs through @streetsoccerSCO and other orgs. Turning her wounds into wisdom to now support others with shared experiences, Sarah shares her journey today below... #IWD2020 #SameTeam

    “The first time I took heroin, I hated it. But for some reason I went back.” After battling addiction, football has helped Sarah in her rehabilitation. Football has changed her life – football has saved her life. This #IWD, we want to share her inspirational story.
