The Homeless Street Soccer program is alive and kicking in Wollongong

Mission Australia's Big Heart Enterprise in Wollongong is proud to support this unique, life-changing initiative. Last Tuesday, Big Heart presented the coach of Wollongong's team, Lee Robinson, with new team jerseys.

The Community Street Soccer Program, known as Street Soccer uses the power of sport to promote social inclusion and personal change for homeless, marginalised and disadvantaged people. It helps to transform lives while building community interaction across Australia.

The llawarra Mercury recently ran a story on Lee's Wollongong Homeless Street Soccer team - read on at the Fairfax website.
