Blantyre Soccer Academy is much more than just a badge.
Instead of bringing in a sponsor to fund training and matchday jumpers, the parents came together, self-funded them, and chose to use that space for something bigger than football.
BSA are proud to have been approved to support SAMH (Scottish Action for Mental Health), a charity whose values align with everything they believe in as a team: support, community, and looking after each other on and off the pitch.
Mental health matters. Always.
SAMH is Scotland’s national mental health charity. Today, they operate over 70 services in communities across Scotland, providing mental health social care support, addictions and employment services, among others. Together with national programme work in See Me, respectme, suicide prevention, and physical activity and sport, these services inform SAMH’s policy and campaign work to influence positive social change.
BSA added, “We’re proud of our players. Proud of our parents. Proud to wear this badge!”
