CEBU CITY, Philippines (SunStar) - At just a shade over four feet, 10-year-old Jessie Kayle Santillan dreams to be like 5’11” David Beckham someday and be football star just like him.
That’s one big dream for one small kid.
Kayle plays right forward and is currently the smallest football player of the Canduman Elementary School, which played last Saturday at the Milo Little Olympics 2007. And while Kayle finds himself up against kids which are twice his size, being tiny doesn’t come as a disadvantage.
