We also offer mountain concursos where young people compete for donated soccer balls, soccer cleats, shin guards, uniforms, soccer socks, and shorts.
How We Share Your Cup Of Hope With The Children Of Honduras
A. Organize a day for a concurso where we will bring additional soccer shirts, balls, shinguards for a competition of all the kids: This will enable children who are not on the team that the uniforms are donated for to participate. It also permits girls to enter and win balls and other items. Through the concursos we teach healthy competition, working together, coordination. Here are the components of a Donation Concurso:

To see photos of each of these activities go to http://www.satglobal.com/donation_concurso.htm
Here is a little information on same part sof the concursos:
|
Individual Sack Race - The Race Of Personal Coordination |
The individual sack race tests the person's coordination and personal control of their body. The winners usually do not start off running as fast as they can. If they have experience they know how to do it right. Just the right speed, steps short enough to fit inside the sack and timing. Those who fall try to go too fast, take too long steps and do not know where their body parts are. They cannot coordinate running at a certain speed, with steps of a certain distance. The ones who win often are not the fastest, but the most careful or better thinkers.
|
Two Person Sack Race - The Race of Cooperation and Teamwork |
The Two person sack race requires two people to be in absolute harmony and cooperate totally. They must work together and not try to outrun or outshine their partner.
|
Potato Race - The Race Of Hand, Eye and Body Coordination
In this race the person must control his body movements at the same time they move forward. It requires constant thinking and the making of minute calculations over and over again. |
|
The Speed Race - The Race Of Athleticism |
This is a race that tests the athletic ability of a young person. Those who are in condition usually win these races. Most of the kids already know who is likely to win this race. It requires speed, stamina and dedication to win this race.
B. Prepare a small plot of land for use in planting trees and/or other plants that I want your group to grow—this is the environmental part of Soccer For Life’s Mission
C. Care for the plot and the plants
D. Collect ornamental plants from the forest and or your yards (ask your mom’s permission first). These will be planted around the plot to beautify it.
These youth need to know they must do something in exchange for what they get
in life. Because they are now actively involved as well, when both parties
participate it is a complete transaction. That makes it a win win proposition
that builds self esteem
because these youth know they have something to give.
