Football freestyler embarks on EFL tour in support of Mental Health UK

The football freestyler, Jay Rosa, performed at the Stadium of Light last Tuesday as part of his EFL tour across the country.

Rosa’s latest performance was at half-time in the Championship match between Sunderland and Leicester City at The Stadium of Light in front of 40,000 spectators.

The freestyler featured in a live televised interview and performed a lap of honour after his performance to raise awareness about mental health in England.

Freestyling has been around for some time now and has become popularised through social media, especially through the likes of the ‘F2 Freestylers’ on YouTube.

Rosa is unique in the fact that he wants to use his ability to draw attention to the issue of mental health.

His aim is to perform at every single football league stadium in the country in the hope of receiving donations that go towards his chosen charity.

Rosa’s EFL tour

Rosa’s tour began in January 2023. He has already performed at the likes of Blackburn Rovers, Charlton Athletic, Coventry City, Sheffield United, and Nottingham Forest.

In the 2023/24 season, Rosa has over 50 football clubs booked, meaning he is getting closer to reaching his target. Rosa has gained widespread recognition and support for his journey by exciting fans, while promoting a meaningful message.
