The Mini World Cup slogan get chosen! to go on the FIFA FUSSBALL GLOBE WM 2006 
The slogan: "I love football because it has touched the hearts of the world" has been selected to go on the 360° FOOTBALL GLOBE screen that will go around Germany advertising the World Cup. The FOOTBALL GLOBE is a symbol of how Germany is looking forward to hosting and organizing the 2006 FIFA World Cup™. It gives a lively form to the 2006 FIFA World Cup™ motto:
"A time to make friends™". This is the message we received from the Football GLOBE TEAM:
Dear soccer friend, we liked your statement on why you love soccer. It will feature for a time on an impressive 360° projection screen in the FOOTBALL GLOBE. Visit the Web site at: www.FIFAworldcup.com/globe/
The football balls that will be used by the teams at these Summer football tournaments in the city of Cambridge, have been manufactured in Kenya through the charity Alive & Kicking UK. Alive & Kicking has established a major initiative to assist children and young people from poorer communities in Kenya to play more sport and at the same time address their vulnerability to diseases such as HIV / AIDS and Malaria.
