September 16, 2017. Vegaez, Antioquia, Colombia. Members of FARC soccer team share strategies before the next match against the 94th infantry Battalion of the Colombian Armed forces.. weekend the FARC soccer team travel by boat to the community of Vegaez to play friendly games against local teams. According to Walter Mendoza the leader in charge of soccer FARC program across all the 26 transitional zones, the idea is to start winning hearts and minds through sports. This not only helps out members take part in sports, which has always been at the core of FARC but to have exchanges with the communities. This is the only way for us to continue the work now that we have become a political party.”
