Christmas comes eight months early for children of Panama

Young street footballers in Panama City now have a way to turn their parks and urban spaces into football pitches thanks to Packaworld International.

On a trip to Panama to support the 2017 Latin American Special Olympics Games, Packaworld International CEO Peter Roberts encountered a group of young street footballers.

Once Football Packagoals were inflated, a classic game of street football kicked off, turning a Panama City park into an improvised football stadium where the joy of the game brought in more players and spectators.

​The goals were given to the players afterwards so they could take the game with them and play for real wherever and whenever they wanted to.
