South London Special League
is changing!
After having been awarded new funding from the Football Foundation, and a range of match funders, we will be developing into different areas over the next 3 years . This will enable more and more people with special needs to enjoy the gift of sport. To celebrate this, we have lauched our new logo that reflects the increasing diversity of our project.
We are still the South London Special League, but we will be seeking out new horizons in sport.
Watch the website to keep in touch with our exciting new developments.
SLSL is a unique project that offers opportunities for young people through sport to improve their lives, increase fitness, raise their self esteem and heighten their aspirations. It is an award winning successful community based project that enables young players with disabilities to participate and compete at a level appropriate to their ability.
The league ensures young people with a learning disability have the opportunity to play sport on a regular basis, competing at each age, gender and ability level for an annual cup. In turn this raises the awareness and involvement of the local communities to the skill of the players and their determination to succeed.
The league was set up in 2004. Since this date some 900+ boys and girls have experienced the fun of playing football. The project has been managed since its inception by Sharon Brokenshire and has received a variety of awards for excellence that demonstrate the level of commitment of the management committee.
The FA's RESPECT initiative...
At the South London Special League we always celebrate FAIRPLAY as an integral part of the game. We fully
support the FA's RESPECT initiative and expect all players team managers and spectators to follow the Code of
Conduct adopted by the club. Click here to view the Codes of conduct pdf
This is the mainstay of the ethos and beliefs upheld by the South London Special League.
