President Hakainde Hichilema (HH) says to develop Zambia Women’s National Team (Copper Queens) more exposure must be provided to competitive friendlies and strengthen the women’s domestic league.
President Hichilema says, “we take immense pride in our Copper Queens exceptional performance in their debut World Cup appearance, where they are competing against the world’s best.”
He says although Zambia has faced defeat so far, it is recognized that every loss comes with both pain and opportunities for growth.
“We should commit to building on this valuable experience.
“To further develop our team’s capabilities we should provide our girls with more exposure to competitive friendlies and strengthen the women’s domestic league,” he said.
Copper Queens have lost 2 games at FIFA Women’s World Cup which is hosted by Austria and New Zeeland.
