Some 35 million footballs a year are sent out from Pakistan to places all over the world. For the people who sew them it has, at least, brought some stability. Most of the balls are made in workers' homes. It used to be mainly children who had to stitch the balls. Now monitors make unannounced checks to make sure that's no longer the case.
