Red Letter Day - Football boots
State of the Art Football Boots
Today was a red letter day for Little Stars and for Luxor's aspiring footballers who are so enthusiastic about the sport as Egypt holds the 2008 African Nations Cup.
Our Trustees collected 150 pairs of top of the range, state of the art, football boots which, with the permission of Adidas, were donated by the UK Trading Standards Authority. The boots are red/white. black/white and blue/white and there are a couple of gold/white pairs for good measure. The boots of medium and large sizes will be distributed to local football teams, school football teams and individual players.
The event was photographed for a press release as the Trading Standards Authority are delighted that the goods could be put to good use. The boots are to be flown out to Luxor by Egypt Air who have made a wonderful gesture in waving their charges. We, and the youth of Luxor, are very grateful for the time and effort that everyone has put into this.
