Essay contest: is playing soccer a child right?

The 10th of December is International Human Rights Day. A day to celebrate the importance of human rights for freedom and peace around the world. On this day we also celebrate the Rights of the Child. The United Nations agreed that all the children in the world have the same rights. Children have the right to a safe home, to go to school, and to play. A very popular play in South Africa is soccer. It teaches you to cooperate with a
team, how to handle losing a game, and much more. During the World Cup this year, the whole world could see how important soccer is in South Africa.

Soccer is a way for young South Africans to develop, learn to express yourselves and prepare yourself for life. We believe in the power of soccer: yes""> young South Africans can exercise their right to play and develop their future. But what do we really know?? The Netherlands Embassy would like to hear your stories and challenges you to write about what playing soccer means to you. Did it give you opportunities that you otherwise would not have had?
