Sports

Here is the girls "hoop ball" or basketball team. They use a soccer ball and play outside on dirt with 2 hoops nailed to sticks in the ground.















This is part of the boys soccer (called football here) team. These teams are from the primary school which you can see in the background. Football is very popular here as it is almost everywhere in the world except the US.















The students and villagers are very enthusiastic and run out of the field after every goal. Football is one of the few local entertainments and there is usually a game between village teams every Sunday afternoon.














Some wig!














Cheerleaders.
