She added that with many players being mothers, dedication to training has been outstanding.

“Even though the training was a bit intense and short, it was not easy. We faced a lot of challenges along the way but we have the support of the RFMF Wives Club and also the support of our husbands that we have been able to have a good game today.”

Daunivere thanked the team for their effort and discipline throughout the campaign, expressing pride in what they were able to achieve.
