Nairobi: Slum soccer upgraded
- Posted on Monday 9 March 2009 - 14:53Neville Omondi, VoicesofAfrica mobile reporter in Nairobi, KenyaA price of a new soccer ball is about 16 USD. This amount is too big for people in areas with low-income residents. They played balls made with plastic bags and polythene papers.Loading video...This makes it hard for the youths who engage in football to compete with others effectively. One of the youths, Jeff Kasisi decided to teach himself ball sewing and repairing skills. He acquires football balls that are old, torn and are to be disposed by club teams and others who can afford to replace their spoilt balls. He does it for free.
