UK - London - Footballers pack up in the rain

Rain starts falling on a football training session in Ruskin Park, south London. As most players pack their kit away and prepare to leave the field, one last youth player diligently practices his keepie uppies. The park is used widely for organised Saturday and holiday football youth clubs to learn skills and discipline in an area of high youth offences and gang crime. Wealthy homes are seen in the background, properties from the Edwardian era which sell for up to a million Pounds.
