After the game, we spent some time learning about the school and how it runs. TBI students had the opportunity to ask questions about how a typical Turkana school functions.

We hope to challenge them to a rematch in the future. All in all, a great day for our soccer players. Go TBI!

Stay tuned for more adventures from the TBI students!
