this sounds odd, but it's certainly true in the township of khayelitsha.drive from cape town's leafier districts, it has little to offer to its inhabitants. children are born into a climate of poverty and violence. well, then a young guy from germany came along. he was doing his voluntary social year out and was determined to make a difference. he was planning to stay 18 months. that was four years ago. he has since received funding from football greats like oliver kahn and phillip lahm. the name of the project, "amandla," translates into "the force of power." here's how kicking a ball around a pitch can transform children's lives. >> when it gets dark, it gets dangerous in khayelitsha. so these youngsters play soccer when things are worst -- on friday night. the rates for murder and rape are higher here than almost anywhere else on earth. >> there is a problem with gangsters. a huge problem, like with small kids starting from the age of nine. there are gangsters in amazing numbers. you find maybe 50 of them walking along at night. so it is dangerous here.
