JFV Kinzigtal donated the leather balls together with its sponsor Globus Baumarkt, and African-Spirits managing director Markus Giesbert took care of the transport on his business trip to Namibia this year. And because Giesbert is also a children\u2019s coach at JFV, he took it upon himself to organise a little football match with the steps for children children too. As a result, 25 children including Giesbert (an emergency stand-in veteran footballer) sweated it out in the OK stadium for almost 30 minutes at just under 31 degrees. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stepsforchildren.de\/en\/inform\/standorte\/projekte-in-namibia\/okakarara\/\">Okakarara<\/a> at almost 31 degrees for almost 30 minutes. \u201eThe worst thing is \u2013 even if you stop kicking, you just keep sweating,\u201c said Giesbert after the mini training session. In any case, the Namibian children have firmly resolved to train diligently and one day, as the Namibian Warriors, teach Hansi Flick &amp; Co. a lesson.
