Namibia's Special Olympics Unified Women's Football Team has written a new chapter in the country's sporting history. After winning their first Unified Football World Cup title in Paris, the champions returned with a second Special Olympics gold medal and a N$250,000 reward for their achievement.

A dream that began on the football fields of Paris ended with Namibia standing on top of the world as the Special Olympics Unified women's football team returned home to a heroes' welcome.
