More Than Just a Game – Football V Apartheid
More Than Just a Game – Football V Apartheid is the true story of how former prisoners in South Africa’s infamous Robben Island turned football into an active force in the struggle against apartheid. After years of campaigning, these extraordinary men triumphed over the prison authorise and formed the Makana Football Association. For nearly twenty years the convicts played the beautiful game with strict adherence to FIFA rules. Written by Chuck Korr and Marvin Close, and with a preface by Sepp Blatter, More Than Just a Game – Football V Apartheid is a celebration of bravery and heroism, which shows how sport has the power to unite and overcome adversity.
