"Despite having all of this working against them, these kids have shown their winning strength in basketball courts. They have played with body and soul and become victors. They have shown the world that despite their situation in Mexico, they are a beacon of hope for the people of Oaxaca and Mexicans", said the president of the Mexican team, Gerardo Vásquez.
Despite the children hoping to travel to the US to work after finishing their studies, their trainers and sports authorities insist that they should remain in Mexico to continue to be an example for the rest of society.
The children hope to do many things while in California, among which are visiting Disneyland, touring the University of California and going to an NBA game.
