India's Search for a Soccer Star
We hear about the life changing work of the Indian based Young Champs Academy. Their full time residential scholarship has given children aged between 11 and 14 a dream footballing opportunity and for some saved them from a life on the streets.
In conjunction with the English Premier League the academy has been on a tour of some of football's most famous clubs. We joined them at Manchester City as they prepared for a match.
