Girls left behind by their migrant worker parents in Southwest China are using their fleet soccer footwork to take steps towards a brighter future and achieving their goals.
Shizhu Tujia Autonomous County, 200 kilometers from Chongqing, is near the Three Gorges Dam and nestled between imposing mountains and fast-flowing rivers. The region is ethnically diverse, with 29 minorities sharing the dramatic landscape Air Max 90 Sale , but is economically underdeveloped.
This has led to most of the villagers of working age moving away to become migrant workers and leaving their offspring - mostly girls - behind, which can make life hard for these so-called ""leftover children.""
Three years ago, an elementary school headmaster in Sanhe village named Sun Xiaoming decided to give the children something to fill their time. He organized a football team to help his students to ""study well and live happily."" Most of the players are girls.
Few Chinese parents are eager for their children to take up sports, as they fear injury and prefer their children to focus purely on their academic studies. But Sun believed that he could link football Air Max 1 Sale , with its fancy steps, to local dance traditions and win people over.
One by one Sun persuaded families to allow their girls to play ""the beautiful game.""
Ma Lingqiao is one of his star players. It was hard to persuade her family as they didn't see the point of letting her play. ""We are striving to make a living away from home, saving little money. We want her to study and get a decent job. Not play football,"" Ma's mother told reporters.
But Sun was able to point to Lu Juhua Air Max Sale , one of his football players that was given a place in an urban school in Chongqing based on her sporting skills. This education might put her on a path to a more prosperous urban life. This is the dream for many of Sun's players.
""I know Messi and Ronaldo, but I haven't seen them play football,"" Ma said, as her family cannot afford cable TV and sports channels. After three years of training Nike Air Max 95 Sale Outlet , Sun's team was ready to compete.
In November, the village team beat a Chongqing city club that has a decades-long football tradition.

KIEV, May 15 (Xinhua) -- Ukrainian soccer club Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk roared into the final of the UEFA Europa League for the first time in its history, after a 1-0 home victory over Italy's Napoli on Thursday night.
The game was played before a sold-out crowd of around 70 Nike Air Max 90 Sale Outlet ,000 fans at the Olympic Stadium in Kiev, where the football pitch was flooded owing to a heavy rain.
After their first leg 1-1 draw in Naples, the two teams were very cautious in their game.
For the hosts, a 0-0 draw would have been enough to advance to the final on the away goal Nike Air Max 1 Sale Outlet , so the team from Dnipropetrovsk was slow and looked to run out the clock to preserve the result.
Napoli had better ball possession throughout the match, more shots at goal and more shots at target, but failed to score.
Eugene Seleznyov's 58th-minute header was the only goal of the match and the Ukrainian side advanced 2-1 on the aggregate.
On May 27, Dnipro will face Spain's Sevilla Nike Air Max Sale Outlet , the defending champion of the Europa League, in Warsaw.
MELBOURNE， Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- A prominent animal rights group has called on an Australian council to rename "Eggs and Bacon Bay" to a vegan alternative.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) proposed "Apple and Cherry Bay" as an alternative name to Tasmania's Huon Valley Council， where the popular fishing spot is located.
Ashley Fruno， associate director of campaigns for PETA Australia， said the group hoped the change would promote a healthier lifestyle for residents of the area.
"Considering the high levels of cholesterol and saturated fat in both eggs and bacon， the area may as well be called 'Heart Attack Bay'，" Fruno told News Limited on Wednesday.
"The Huon Valley is famous for its delectable apples and cherries， so we are asking the council 'where's the fruit?' in the hope that it will apply to change the name to 'Apple and Cherry Bay'."
In a written submission to Huon Valley Mayor Peter Coad， Fruno said that 93 percent of Tasmanians did not eat enough fruit and that Tasmania had the highest rate of lap-band surgery in Australia.
"Reminding residents to stay away from cholesterol and fat-laden bacon and eggs and instead to eat the fresh plant produce of the Huon Valley might be just what the doctor ordered，" she wrote.
Despite an offer of a vegan apple pie for every Huon Valley resident if the name is changed， locals took to social media to mock the proposal.
One person suggested the simple "Quinoa Cove" as an alternative while another said they think "egg， bacon， sausage and steak would be appropriate."
