  • Human Trafficking in and Through Football: Case Studies Involving “Fake Agents”
    Human Trafficking in and through Football: case studies involving “fake agents” Background It is a well know fact that the game of football and the successes of its players have instigated a growing aspiration within youngsters all over the world. The need to develop such young talents have led to the recruitment young boys, and increasingly girls, in many parts of the Global South, namely on the African and Latin American continents. In the same light, it has also increased the motivation of traffickers to prey on aspiring young talents who often lack the opportunities that some of the peers in the Western world possess. In 2015, an article in the international press claimed that 15,000 young players were moved from West Africa yearly under false pretence.1 The hidden nature of the crime means that the number could be higher. In Belgium, 442 cases of ‘African soccer slaves’ were uncovered by Senator Jean Marie Dedecker when he exposed the illegal trade in Nigerian players within European football2. When moving alone to unknown places, children are always in danger of becoming victims of crimes like human trafficking and other forms of slavery. Illicit recruitment agents use the world of football to make money by faking contracts and luring young African players to migrate to Europe under illegal conditions, only to abandon them as soon as they can. Even though sometimes the athletes migrate through legal routes, they end up becoming illegal by overstaying their visas.3 In some cases, young people are given short-term visas and contracts for trials with clubs in Europe, entering the destination country even by airplane, often paid for by the hard-earned money borrowed or given to them by their immediate or extended families.

    MONDAY, JUNE 29, 2015 SPORTS England dump hosts Canada Canadians collapse in tears VANCOUVER: England scored twice in three first-half minutes then held on to beat hosts Canada 2-1 on Saturday and book a spot in the Women’s World Cup semi-finals against Japan. The hosts had been hoping to secure the semi-final spot against the defending champions on Canada Day, July 1, in Edmonton but instead it was England who moved into the last four of a World Cup for the first time. England coach Mark Sampson paid tribute to the opposi- tion and fans. “I have never been in a stadium as loud, as pas- sionate for their team as that was, they couldn’t have pushed us any further we had to really, really dig deep today to get the result we wanted,” he told reporters. “They’ve shown a desire I have never seen in an England team before to hang on in there and get us through to the next round.” Without a men’s or women’s World Cup title since 1966, and exasperated by another failure at the men’s U21 European Championships, the “Lionesses” have become the toast of England. “We’re history makers again, only the third England team to get to a semi-final, we have now joined that 1966 and 1990 club, very, very proud of the whole group,” beamed Sampson.

  • Para Meterse En Carrera Debe Hacerse Respetar En Casa Diario Concepción (
    Para meterse en carrera debe hacerse respetar en casa Diario Concepción (http://www.diarioconcepcion.cl) Para meterse en carrera debe hacerse respetar en casa [1] Sólo una vez los altiplánicos han ganado en nuestro país. Por ello, si la Roja no quiere perder terreno en la tabla ganar es la única opción de cara a una pareja clasificatoria. Pulgar o Silva es la gran duda de Pizzi para reemplazar a Medel. Carlos Campos Agurto [email protected] Para dejar atrás la mala imagen que mostró ante Paraguay, la Roja debe hacer valer la historia y superar a uno de los países de menor rendimiento en el continente hoy en día. Chile enfrentará desde las 20:30 horas a Bolivia, con el único objetivo de ganar para volver a ingresar a la zona de clasificación, lugar del que salió el jueves pasado tras la caída en Asunción. Hoy, sin Mundial Es cierto que queda mucho para que termine la clasificatoria rumbo al Mundial de Rusia 2018, pero hoy Chile está fuera de la próxima cita planetaria. La Roja se ubica séptima en la tabla con 10 unidades, a tres puntos de Ecuador, que es cuarto y el último que hoy accedería directo al Mundial. El DT nacional, Juan Antonio Pizzi, no dramatizó y dijo que "aún no llegamos ni a la mitad de la eliminatoria. Clasificar nos va a requerir mucho esfuerzo a todos. Hasta la última fecha no se sabrá quiénes irán al Mundial". De más bajo rendimiento Los altiplánicos no van a un Mundial desde 1994 y, por su actual momento, no parece que aquella estadística vaya a cambiar.
