Description
Teams from all over the world take to the pitch at the "Grannies World Cup" in South Africa's far north, with 30-minute games played at a slow but purposeful pace. "The thing that I want to achieve is for older or the elderly or older women to come together and enjoy," says Rebecca Ntsanwisi, or 'Mama Beka', the four-day tournament's founder. "It's very impactful, very moving," says Benedicte Anstett, a player on the French team. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
