http://www.lightstalkers.org/galleries/contact_sheet/2635 The Homeless World Cup (www.homelessworldcup.org) is an international street soccer event that highlights the positive power of sport by creating a unique setting for homeless people and people in poverty. Mel Young and Harold Schmied created the concept in 2001 at the Annual International Network of Street Papers Conference (INSP), which works on practical solutions for homelessness and poverty. Founded in 1995 the INSP today acts as a network for more than 60 street papers world-wide. It provides excluded people with access to football, the feeling of belonging, challenge of working in a team, the process of regaining a health-oriented attitude towards life, self-esteem and last but not least the experience of fun. These portraits were taken of the final 8 players selected to represent England to play in Copenhagen 2007. http://www.lightstalkers.org en-us http://images.lightstalkers.org/avatars/4133/stacey_penarth_web_small.jpg http://www.lightstalkers.org/Stacey Yates
