As the Sierra Leone U-20 Female National team commences preparations for the upcoming West African Football Union (WAFU) U-20 female tournament in Senegal with their first training session at the SLFA Academy, 95% of the veteran players have expressed grief over the selective selection of U-20 female national team players in the forthcoming tournament in Senegal.
But head Coach Fatmata Turay has expressed optimism about the team’s performance and mentioned confidence in their ability to excel in the tournament.
“The team intensified training with high spirits and determination ahead of the 2024 Female U-20 tournaments scheduled from 20th to 30th May 2024,” a statement said.
The organizers have confirmed that the draw for the U-20 girls in the Senegal 2024 tournament will take place this Wednesday in Dakar.
Meanwhile, Sierra Leoneans are expecting credible performance and a victory ahead.
