Before January 2005,young girls couldn't play soccer in Katutura,a black township in Namibia,Africa. They had no soccer balls,no playing field,no shoes,and no leader. Each day,girls and boys gathered at the Nordkamp Center after school. Most of the boys would play soccer in a nearby dirt field while the girls remained at the center to jump rope of read books.
Center director Mary Beth Gallagher loved soccer and knew that the girls would love it,too.So she organized a girls team with players under the age of 12.She knew it would be the youngest girls’ soccer team in the whole country. Because they had no other girls' teams to compete with,Mary Beth arranged(安排) matches against the boys’ teams. The boys were bigger and stronger, but the girls didn't back down.
Soon news spread about the Nordkamp girls’team. An American soccer team from New York heard about them and immediately sent all their uniforms(制服) and shoes to their “soccer sisters". When the bright orange uniforms arrived,the Nordkamp girls danced happily.
You look like pumpkins,” Mary Beth said.
A girl's voice called out, “If we are pumpkins,we? re beautiful pumpkins/'
With their new name the Pumpkins,the experienced team was ready for a big match.
On December 1,2006,the Pumpkins gathered and walked in a big orange line to a field near the Nordkamp Center. Their first opposing(对抗的) team laughed at the young players,but they didn't laugh for long. They quickly found out just how good the Pumpkins were. The Pumpkins beat that first team and then the next. These girls became famous,and their story was also encouraging to others in Namibia.
