Meet the kids of the Football For Hope Centre

Since the Football For Hope Centre is so well integrated into the community in Khayelitsha, there are always little kids hanging around after school.  There are some regulars that we have gotten to know really well, and sometimes they even help me pass out fruit during Skillz Street (or run to buy me chips if I'm hungry!).

Our neighbors!

Sihle was very close with Jamison and Talia, the former interns at the Centre.  Andrew and I have also become really close with him, as he hangs out with us in the office every day after school. He even stayed with us in town one night!

Sihle loves to tickle us. It's my least favorite thing about him.
