When Kenyan women’s lacrosse team was playing with no cleats, the Israeli team gifts them new ones
On Tuesday, the Kenyan women’s lacrosse team played Israel and were at a slight disadvantage as its players did not have any cleats. That is why the next day, Israeli team surprised the whole team with brand new cleats.
It should be noted that the Kenyans aren’t like other players. They have minimal financial support, and the young women face poverty and hardship at home, and Team Israel took note.
“I know how important it is for people to wear the right kind of footwear,” said Duvdevani, a pethordist who founded “Complete Feet” in the United States.
Duvdevani and other parents from Team Israel conspired with Team Kenya’s coach for the players’ sizes and purchased a pair of cleats for each one. They presented them the following day to the Kenyans’ surprise and it was a game changer.
