Football is a business, a BIG business…
Think about all the shirts, scarves, tickets, programmes you buy
Where does that money go?
The players? The chairmen? The fans?

Why do companies want to sponsor football clubs?
Everton sell a lot of shirts in Asia because they are sponsored by Chang beer (an Asian
beer) and have a Chinese player, Li Tie

Who are the losers?(and I don’t mean Sunderland!)• Thierry Henry is paid £1500 per day to
kick a football• The football is made of rubber and
synthetic leather, which would cost £60 in the shops
• The footballs are made in Pakistan,m who make 75% of all the world’s footballs, which is 35 million each year
Omar’s Story
• I have been stitching footballs since I was 8. I don’t want to. But I have to, because my dad died and we need the money. My mum used to do them too but now she has trouble with her eyes. So I have to support my family.
• I work in a stitching centre. I start at 7 in the morning and often work till 8 in the evening. I can do 4 footballs a day, so I earn £2 a day. But they can throw me out any time. I don’t know what I will do if that happens.
• I get tired of sewing all day. My fingers are all cut. I would love to go to school, but no chance!
• I saw a World Cup match on the TV at my uncle’s house. The football could have been mine. But no-one at the match knew about me!

Is this fair?
• Football is fun - for some. Not for the children of Pakistan who stitch footballs to help their families survive.
• The International Labour Organisation says that between 5,000 and 7,000 children in Sialkot in Pakistan, aged from 5 to 14, work in the football industry.
