Why would you travel to the other side of the world to play football in a rainy toad habitat? This is what Paul Watson, journalist, author and football enthusiast, found himself having to answer when he ended up in Pohnpei, a Micronesian island, with the mission to bring them the joy of football. It’s a story that involves calling on the Mormons, trying to win just one game of football and ending up in a bank in London with a suitcase full of money! There is so much to Paul’s story that we will have to do a second episode soon!
