For months, Sophie Warlouzel has been working on the creation of a Multi-Sport association for the children of Baie du Cap village. She’s spent a large amount of time with the village’s young people to better understand their needs and work out which sports they like the most.
It quickly became apparent that football was their favourite sport. Two local men, Ernest and Eric, volunteered to run the club and train the children. But first they had to tackle a lack of equipment: the club didn’t even have any footballs! Working with the entire Anbalaba team, we launched a campaign to ask for donations of training equipment (balls, training ladders, goal nets, etc...). Our friends from Cabestany in France – including Richard Castello and his fellow members of the Catalan Adventurers association, as well as the Casa Sol shop – sent us a huge bag of football equipment for the Baie du Cap youngsters: 22 footballs, two training ladders, two goal nets, shin guards, shoes, cones, jumpers, etc.
