With only 4 months before the U19 OFC championship on June 2023, there is a lot to do. Up to 48 enthusiastic young Tongan female players attending last year’s training it is hoped the same enthusiasm will be shown again this year.
Training matches will begin on Tuesday 14th and Thursday 16th February from 5.00pm to 6.15pm for the U16 and U19 girls to identify potential Tongan National Youth Team Players.
It has also been good to have current Mataliki senior women’s national team players assisting as they are able to share their experiences with the younger players.
Goalkeeper Training is also available on Tuesday and Thursday afternoon from 5.00pm – 6.15pm for goalkeepers who wish to improve their goalkeeping skills and be identified for future national teams.
The Senior Mataliki women’s team trials and training will commence in March.
“Any potentially talented girls and women who are excited and willing to commit to working hard to represent Tonga are always welcome to attend training sessions” TFA National Women’s Coach Connie Selby said.
End.
