Football league for fat players launched in England

A new football league called 'Man V Fat Football League' has been launched in England for only fat men.
This league is exclusively for men who have a BMI of 30 or over in a bid to get obese men to excercise.

In this league, goals are not the only parameter to get points, pounds lost after game are also used.

 The initiator of the league Andrew Shanahan said he started the league in January 2014 after getting fed up with weight classes which he said were filled with women.

The 37-year-old cannot play in the league after losing five stone to go from 17 to 12 stone.

Teams playing in the league include Inter Pies, XL Legends, Beer Bellies United and Phoenix XXXL.
"I started Man V Fat two years ago because I was morbidly obese and experienced first-hand the difficulties men face during weight loss," Shanahan told Daily Mail.

 

"I was 17 stone in 2013 and now I'm just over 12 stone, but I was shocked at how little support blokes get for weight loss. There was no help for me, and all the classes seemed tailored to womens' needs.

"I remember going to a Weight Watchers meeting and I was the only guy there. It was embarrassing and I was so out of my depth.
