SAFA to Reposition Women

Flowing from a recent Technical Workshop held in Vanderbijlpark, which focused on Women Football, Youth Football and the Technical Structure, SAFA’s Women Committee met President Dr Molefi Oliphant on 14 August 2008 to discuss the implementation strategy.

Chairperson of the Women’s Committee Anastasia Tsichlas says the implementation strategy will be completed after consultation with various stakeholders, in particular the governing body of School’s Football, SASFA (South African Schools Football Association).

"There is a general mood of determination to reposition football development in the country, and we are encouraged that women football development is given as much attention, as we strive to take South African football to another level," says Tsichlas.

In explaining the areas of focus to help develop and accelerate women football, Tsichlas says a workshop on women football will be held on the 22-24 August 2008 and the discussions will center around:
1. Girls Football in Schools
2. Formation of Women Clubs by PSL teams
3. Competitions Format and Budget
4. Establishment of Women’s National Football League.
5. Setting up an office with a dedicated staff, dealing solely with Women Football.

Tsichlas says a meeting with the provincial league clubs will be called after the Workshop, to map the Way forward in terms of the recommendations.
