The Fiji Football Association is trying to strengthen the National women’s team after an impressive performance at the OFC Nations Cup this year.

Fiji Football Association Chief Executive Mohammed Yusuf says they need a strong team as they set their sight for Gold in the Pacific Games next July.

“The national coach Marika Rodu and them will be scouting for more talents. We’ll probably try and secure another US based player. Her parents are still trying to secure a Fijian Passport for her. If that happens than we will have two overseas based players and that will create a big impact on our team.”

He adds they are trying to secure two international players for the Women’s team as they prepare for the Pacific Games next year.

Meanwhile, the Vodafone Senior Women’s League playoff continues this afternoon at the Fiji FA Academy ground.
