Phnom Penh, Cambodia, July 14, 2010
Eight Cambodian children from remote villages of Battambang province were selected by Spirit of Soccer and the Cambodian Football Federation to compete in the Football for Hope Festival 2010 in South Africa, an official event of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. The festival featured a mini-World Cup tournament and cultural exchange in Johannesburg that brought together 32 delegations representing 50 countries from around the world.

On behalf of whole MTG and especially the boys and girls and the leaders who have been selected to represent MTG in Johannesburg we would like to thank you very much.
