If the senior players leave the scene in turn, the younger generations are joining more and more women’s teams.
The Polynesian women’s selection has had the podium of the biggest matches in the world of basketball. Meetings today on stand-by with the covid. A fact that has not prevented young players from playing the game. They join the increasing number of women’s teams, while adult players leave, following injuries or to devote themselves to their families.
We are trying to set up a strategy to further develop women’s football, especially in seniors.
