Football grandmother from South Africa (29 pics + 3 videos)

I want to tell you about a charity football matches held in different countries around the world.
Today we will talk about the match, which was held in South Africa.
It was the most fun game (according to the author) against YuARskih pensioners in the Limpopo Province (where walks gippopo).



 
Author: The idea to play football with yuarskimi grandmother came spontaneously. We remember a few stories about them with the Football World Cup 2010 in South Africa and tried to contact them. But we have no one to answer any e-mail or in facebook, and we have already forgotten about the idea. And travel plans had already been formed. And then I get a letter saying that they would be happy to accept us.



Miss such a chance was impossible. Carved out 3 days from our Cape Town route and got tickets to the other end of South Africa in Polokwane back and forth (in Cape Town).



And on December 29th we fly to the tiny airport Piterburg that at Polokwane in Limpopo Province. We approach the only carousel with luggage. And peripheral vision and hearing are already aware that we "hit»))





So we still have never met))
The crowd dressed in traditional costume grandmothers shouted, whistled, blew vuvuzelas, impatiently scratching his arms, in which we had to dive.

And we dived.









When everything calmed down a bit, we all met. Grandmother told a little about yourself, and said how happy they are to see us. We, in turn, introduced themselves and invited them to a return visit to Moscow in the summer.



Grandparents were genuinely overwhelmed with happiness on what to them were guests from distant Russia. Songs and Dances lasted 2 hours without a break, while we waited for the bus.





Van arrived and we immediately went to our first match. The fun continues.





Another meeting with the grandmothers (age 55 - 85)





After the meeting at the airport and the way to the stadium, we have learned that the energy grandmothers inexhaustible. Once again in this to make sure we could on the football field.





As soon as we got the ball, his eyes flashed grandmothers. And away we go!









Previously, when local grandmother is not fond of football, they tortured arthritis, radiculitis and other senile Polish woman. Now they say that after they started regularly playing football, forget about all your diseases, and doctors do not need them now!
