A little boy displays his football tricks on a plastic football on the sidelines of a social match played at Lake Chiwero on the 18 April 2018, Zimbabwe’s Independence Day. Football is a popular and loved sport in Zimbabwe. Children love it too.
There, I watched them; As I stood outside the school perimeter fence. Oblivious of my presence, they played on, So steadfast was their interest on the play…

The Billiad Balls A couple of days ago, I passed by a group of small 11 year old boys playing pool. What fascinated me was the expertise they displayed on the game. Ini handitomborigoni game iri. Kukundwa nevafana vaduku. (translated “I do not even know how to play this game, given my age”) However, not wanting to miss out, I fished out my camera and took these three balls. I am not yet a good photographer but I kind of like this picture. The bluish/white striped ball is clear whilst the red ball and background is blurry. Uuum…what an achievement!!!!!
