​One of our successful stories this year is our first Girls Football competed in this tournament 
9 teams including a girl’s football team competed in friendly matches over the last three weeks. the events provides youth with sports experience and opportunities to learn other valuable life and social skills, they are really united behind the sports. 

The kids really enjoyed the day, showed lots of progress and no doubt benefited a lot from the educational materials provided by coaches across continents and One Day One Goal
 We would like to send love back at them and happy peace day to all the big community.
Green Kordofan has a team competing tomorrow at the Folkestone half marathon to raise awareness and fund for the charity and we would be grateful if, you can help the campaign
