I would like to use my first post to celebrate the young girls and boys in Amzmiz for a camp well done. Amzmiz is a small town, a village, one hour outside of Marrakesh. The camp was two days with over 70 young girls participating, all from the local schools. They organized leadership activities with the help of Ami, a peace corps volunteer in town as well as pretty amazing zumba style aerobics and a soccer tournament in the end. What I liked the most, besides the clean air in Amzmiz, was that each following Sunday the organizers of the camp will hold a tournament for the girls at the school. They essentially have started a girls soccer league in Amzmiz. There are some pictures below but you can check out more on my Smug Mug page. Check out more information about the camp and the girls who organized it on my website as well. Three of the young women participated in the Women's Leadership through Football Camp in July and two of those three also participated in the British Council Premier League Camp this past year as well.
Next goal, get the league uniforms!
