After the 10-3 defeat of Sherborne School in a football match by a team from Kayonza, many of the Sherborne players gave away the shirt they were wearing including Ed Bacon who snaps from the teams bus as it departs. In October 2008, 18 boys aged between 16-18 years travelled to Rwanda. They were all pupils of the prestigious Sherborne School in Dorset, UK, a fee paying school with a history of excellence. The pupils had raised £20,000 to pay for a football pitch for the people living in the Kayonza district of Rwanda. The project was overseen by the charity REACH. The boys, along with 5 members off staff, played a football match against a local team, visited various memorials and talked to people across Rwanda to try and understand the countries history and in particulair about the genocide.
