We did not have experienced players – Shipanga

Relegated outfit Desert Foxes FC chairperson Paulo Shipanga says a quality technical team, financial support and experienced players are essential when guiding young players.

Desert Foxes FC bade farewell to FNB Women Super League after a poor run. The coastal outfit recorded one draw, zero wins and lost a massive 21 matches.

Responding to The Namibian Sport, Shipanga attributes the team’s poor run to a display of inexperience.

“We didn’t have depth in the squad, physical strength to match most teams and the players are not used to playing on bigger fields like Unam Field and so on.

“Our ultimate vision has been to use football as a tool to help girls avoid the dangers of substance abuse and teenage pregnancies and stay on the narrow path. One day we will lift up a trophy called the super league.”
