Kurbannisa is a 17-year-old football student at Kashi No. 6 Middle School in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. She begins her training each day before dawn. For her, the game is more than just a sport-it is joy, a dream, and an essential part of life. Two years ago, her school didn't even have a girls' team. Now they're unstoppable. When asked, "Why should girls play football?" her response is firm. "Without football, I couldn't be happy for a single day."
