Many children and parents were seen yesterday at Apia Park with N.F.L stars, visiting Samoa to promote healthy living.
“Teaching us skills of how to handle the ball in American football and know more about the game was something very interesting to me,” said one attendee, Michael Lei.
“There are differences between rugby union and football and I will try my best to learn more so that I can become like them in the near future.”
One of the spectators outside the field, Norman Hanns, said that this is what every parents expected for their children – to grow strong in the culture, schools and in sports.

“As a Samoan, I am really proud of them and watching them was really fantastic.”
“There is something in the blood of Samoan people and behind these great ‘sons’ of ours that tells the story – we can do anything even though Samoa is a very small island country that can hardly be found on the map but the courage to believe and every dream will come true.”
“I do not know them in person but I can see they are very humble ‘sons’ and this gives a very great example to the upcoming players of Samoa, that the more you lower yourselves down to earth, the more you will reach higher, as these superstars.”
Mr Paul Solia’i was leading the training yesterday with the help from Isaako Aaitui and the whole team.
The ongoing programme among schools is promoting health and fitness among youth.
Late yesterday afternoon the team headed to Solosolo to meet with the family of Mr Solia’i.
