Owning a football is the fastest way to make friends. Start kicking it around and pretty soon you’ll have someone to kick it to... and, if the two of you kick it around long enough, you may find yourselves in the middle of a running game of football. It doesn’t matter where you’re from or what language you speak; everyone understands “the beautiful game”.
From now until May, you can play or support your colleagues in a game of five-a-side football or simply help fundraise for a good cause!
In playing “The Beautiful Game” we hope to bring together teams from all over the Old Mutual world to show us why they’re in a league of their own when it comes to football. More importantly, we’ll be raising money for Umthombo Street Children.
