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
The Ball’s 15.000th signature is 65 year old Lorenzo, representative of the indigenous Urus and Iruitos people who inhabit the tiny floating island #urus made completely of #totora plant on #laketiticaca #bolivia
