MAN v FAT Soccer delivers small sided Soccer leagues exclusively designed to support overweight men to improve their physical and mental health. Launched in 2016 by weight loss specialists with over 10 years experience supporting men's health.
What makes our leagues unique is that the coach weighs each player before their game, while supporting and guiding players through their weight loss journey. Players earn bonus goals for their weekly weight loss so the league is decided not only by goals scored on the field, but also pounds lost.
MAN v FAT appeals to men who want to get healthier while playing Soccer,
The program has been hugely successful in the UK with over 8,000 players each week losing hundreds of thousands of pounds since launching in 2016. We now have over 155 clubs in the UK and 20 clubs across Florida, Texas, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York.
