be for kids under 13 years of age and the 12 week competition open to other

communities would be an avenue of empowering the children to be disciplined,

ASK Foundation is to bridge the gap between those who have and those who do n

ot have but have the interest.

barriers that stand in the way of the African kids and their sporting destinies.

Our foundation is the hope to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor and

we hope to guide the kids to reach their goals”.

key to development and the children would be adviced most on education and how

to be civil.

passionate about children who do sports hinted that sports is a tool for many

good things and he will use sports to change his community to be better.

As part of the tourament, a clean up

exercise would be conducted in Nima to educate the children on volunteerism.
