Sports Stars shocked at racism

"FIX," snorted an urchin at the back, his voice rich with Dublin devilment and just a touch of disappointment.

Like most young lads in the large, sweltering room, he'd had his eyes on the prize, a soccer ball signed by Liverpool's UEFA Cup-winning heroes.

Yet the winning ticket was held by Adetoyese Kemi, a student at The Kings Inn Secondary School for girls.

Of course it wasn't a fix. Just a delicious twist of fate which brought yesterday's formal launch of soccer's "Show Racism the Red Card" campaign in Ireland to a splendid conclusion.

With 20,000 free posters of the Republic of Ireland team and an educational CD-Rom available for distribution to schools, the campaign is making a determined effort to educate the nation's children through sport. read full story / add a comment
