Local team having a Soccer Clinic.
They would not stop until it was too dark to see.

By far the most memorable moment was during the this soccer clinic of young men. We were practicing on half a field. On the other half of the field were a group of young children. Almost all were bare foot and the 'ball' was a flat piece of leather that landed rather then bounced. I asked for a coach of which there was none, so we held an impromptu lottery for a ball. It was a group victory for all, because once the ball was awarded everyone started singing and dancing, and very suddenly there were twice as many kids playing soccer.
