			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Spectacularly popular, it&#8217;s no surprise that people are blogging about it all over the world! &nbsp;I&#8217;m talking about <b>Football</b> (or <b>Soccer</b>, as it&#8217;s commonly called in places like New Zealand, South Africa, Canada and the USA).&nbsp;&nbsp;Check out this video about <a href="http://www.voiceinthedesert.org.uk/keith/archives/2009/09/soccer_school_1.html">a recent soccer school in Burkina Faso</a>&#8230;<br /><center><br />
<object width="500" height="405"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/HmSbIc_Jbl0&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0xe1600f&#038;color2=0xfebd01&#038;border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/HmSbIc_Jbl0&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0xe1600f&#038;color2=0xfebd01&#038;border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="500" height="405"></embed></object></center></p>
<p>Sounds like <a href="http://sawyerfam.blogspot.com/2009/10/kiddos.html">a good sport for MKs to learn</a>, right? &nbsp;Or maybe just <a href="http://glicksguate.blogspot.com/2009/10/jail-and-futbol.html">showing a little interest in kids playing f&uacute;tbal</a> could go a long way.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s great to go and watch a game together, like <a href="http://coupes-ecuador.blogspot.com/2009/10/ecuador-world-cup-soccer-match.html">this one between Ecuador and Uruguay</a>. &nbsp;If you can&#8217;t go to the game, you can always <a href="http://hagermans.blogspot.com/2009/10/little-updates.html">watch it on TV</a> &#8211; you&#8217;d be surprised what a community event it can be!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s <a href="http://5cupfamily.wordpress.com/2009/10/09/antonios-story/">someone else using sports to reach out</a> &#8211; maybe you can help.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/index.html"><b>2010 FIFA World Cup</b></a> is coming up! &nbsp;There will no doubt be more and more football buzzzz in the weeks ahead &#8211; stay tuned!</p>
