'Settler' Girls vs. Galilee Arabs in Soccer Playoffs

Girls, ages 10-13, from Efrat in Gush Etzion will square off against girls from the Galilee Arab village Sakhnin tonight in a playoff game that will determine which group will advance to the semi-finals in the girls' league.

"We are involved with soccer and not politics," one of the Efrat girls said. "We really want to win this game for the semi-finals."

The group started playing together last year, but since Efrat has no official-size soccer field, they trained and played in Jerusalem.
