Football dreams from village of Wawu
The following photos feature tells the inspiring story of a new girls' football team at a school deep in the mountains of southwestern China's Sichuan province.

In the years since, the school grew from four students to 272, and the once impoverished area with no electricity or road access is now a place where local girls harbor big dreams to become professional football players.
