Opinion Sultan Jessa: Let them play soccer – Cornwall Seaway News

Just let them play soccer so they stay fit and healthy. And please forget politics.

First female Muslin soccer players were barred from the field if they insisted on wearing head scarves. That silly and stupid ban was finally lifted last year.

The Quebec Soccer Federation, after protest, lifted its controversial hijab ban. And now it is turbans. Yes, turbans worn by members of the Sikh community.

Several young Sikh soccer players in LaSalle have been barred from the game because they do not remove their turbans.
