Stories from the field

I am a Zambian girl; my name is Jude Zulu and I am 18 years old. In school I only went up to Grade 6. I come from a vulnerable family of 6 children.

I am very active and interested in sports, I play football in the Never Give Up Football League and I run in the Never Give Up Cross Country Circuit. My dream is to become a coach in the future for the upcoming football stars.

I love sport and I think it is very important for many reasons:

  • I enjoyed sports from my childhood, it is life to me,
  • it is in my blood;
  • Football and any other sport can speak any language in the world,
  • it helps you communicate with other people,
  • it has no borders, no boundaries;
  • Sports strenghten the body, it also helps to broaden the mind in terms of thinking;
  • Excercise helps preventing some diseases and it keeps the body strong;
  • Sports can also allow you the be recognized at a local and international level;
  • Through sport, someone can receive help for education, sport and employment.
