What is mash up?

A social recreational football programme for 14 – 16 year olds who are looking to get back into or try football for the first time

The Philosophy of the Vauxhall Football Mash Up Clubs programme is to inspire and empower young people through a fun, recreational football playing opportunity that has been specifically designed for 14-16 year olds. The VFMU programme nurtures the young person’s social and psychological development through the creation of a teenage specific environment that centres on the needs of the individuals. The VFMU programme seeks to instil ownership, responsibility and respect through participation and leadership supporting young people to grow in confidence and enhance self esteem via thought provoking practical sessions.

having fun with my mates.”

It is fun and that it is a social event that we
