Some SATUC players have been scouted by football teams, we gave them the chance to show the world what they can do, and they took it.
SATUC does more than just help our children in fact, we have already had some huge success stories. At the cups so far we have invited top football scouts to witness the skills of the stars of tomorrow. SATUC’s mission is to improve the living standards and well-being of children in all parts of the world to provide them with a brighter future, one without poverty or ill-treatment. We do not see our children as victims, and sometimes we can act as a springboard, propelling them into very bright futures.
Indeed the ball had joined those boys from around the world and so did their cheers for their new friends as they watched until it was their turn to play.
Each team, each child who joined the SATUC World Cup, has a different story that makes them unique and much stronger, but often they require hope and someone to tell them they can do it.
Bringing together orphans, refugees, and disadvantaged children from around the world for the purpose of sporting activity and cultural exchange.
