From its humble origins to modern-day play football's essence remains the same. It’s a game that brings people together and inspires passion and loyalty among players and fans worldwide. Football is the vehicle for the change it wants to see in the world.
It starts with a dream that takes place on the football field, a field forged from grass, the same grass a cow grazes from, the same cow that provides its nutrients such as milk and meat to the very player that grasps a dream. That same cow also gifting its cowhide leather to produce a football that represents the ‘centre’ marking the beginning, carrying opportunity and progress. That same football that is connected to the player with the possibility to create openings, movement and momentum. That same player carrying out his dream on that very grass of the field where is all started. This is the cycle where we give back the value of what was received from the universe, the simple beauty of what "just grass" has given.
The dream carries all no matter what the circumstances. Being determined to play the game with broken shoes, a flat ball or a derelict field. All that matters is what football gives; a sense of perseverance, insight, community and love for a passion.
