We love sports

In most of the African nations, people adore and love soccer or football very much as their favorite sport. From balls made out of plastic papers, "kaliavongo" as they term it in kuku a local language in Sudan, to real balls children play it every where.This is not different either in Amazing Grace Orphanage where the children love soccer and play it very much.

For Morris Taban, a 15 -year-old boy in the Orphanage and a Class five pupil in Biyaya Primary School loves football. " I love playing football whenever i get a chance in my free time when i am not helping in the home especially during week-ends and Holidays."

Morris is a goalkeeper in the school team and when they last played the inter-classes tournament,their class won and got the first position. He likes Mathematics in School. He adds on saying that, he calculates at what particular time or when to give a pass to his colleague and to intercept and guards the goal to avoid the opponents from scoring goals.

For most of these children they do not have shoes,uniforms and necessary materials to safeguard themselves while playing soccer. And now two years on, when Morris started playing soccer is eying the prospects of becoming a professional player int the near future.This is what he is dreaming of if given moral support.

"It used to be normal and boring days in the weekends and holidays,but now that has changed especially when we got two balls from a donor in America.We thanks him and God bless him for changing our way of life"

Apart from soccer, Morris loves Volley Ball too but there are no Volley ball facility in the Orphanage. This is also evident with Konga Robina a 15-years-old girl in the Orphanage who loves Volleyball and admires table Tennis too. She admits that," i would love to play the two sports if we have it in the Orphanage although, i enjoy soccer most".
