Juan Pablo loves football. He always wanted to be a player. Due to his cerebral palsy that hasn’t been posisble. Fortunately, with the help of friends and his incredible will, he enrolled at the Instiuto National del Futbol de Chile and against all odds he is on his way to being a professional football coach. His teachers and fellow students at the @Instiuto National del Futbol de Chile and Anfp Chile together with Olimpiadas Especiales Chile have helped make his dream possible. Yesterday, The Ball was there to witness the great respect that Juan Pablo’s colleagues and teachers have for him and to see him coach a football team. One Ball, One Juan Pablo.

The indigenous Urus and Iruitos people who inhabit the tiny floating island #Urus on Lake Tititcaca were delighted by the visit of The Ball. They have been playing football here for decades with their own hand-made balls and were all the more intrigued to find out about The Ball and to ask countless questions about the history of football. At the end of the visit they gave Spirit of Football a hand-made totora plant ball for our exhibition in Brazil. One Ball, One World. With Special Olympics Bolivia
