Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>The Lesotho Football Association (LEFA) is set to distribute football equipment to 81 women\u2019s teams across the country starting this weekend. The equipment includes training kit, bibs, training and match day balls and cones.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year LEFA\u2019s technical department set out to conduct a study on women\u2019s teams in the country and why they are not performing. The study aimed to identify the needs of women\u2019s teams.<\/p>\n

While this initiative will not happen annually, the association hopes the equipment will help the teams going forward because a lot of the teams were found to not have proper football equipment.<\/p>\n

LEFA\u2019s first Vice-President, Khiba Mohoanyane, said the distribution of the equipment to the women teams is the continuation of a journey the association has taken in football.<\/p>\n

He said LEFA\u2019s National Executive Committee (NEC) was concerned why women\u2019s teams were not growing or expanding. Each team will receive four training balls and two FIFA approved match balls.<\/p>\n

Mohoanyane said the association spent over M620 000 to buy the equipment. \u201cIt won\u2019t be a yearly thing, it is something that will happen as and when the need arises about what is needed. We will address those needs, they will probably be different to what is in front of you today,\u201d Mohoanyane said.<\/p>\n

The equipment was received by the president of the National Women\u2019s Football Committee (NWFC) Baholo Motene on behalf of the teams and she thanked the association for lending a helping hand.<\/p>\n

She said starting from this weekend the NWFC will be out distributing the equipment to clubs. She continued that they will monitor its usage. She said there is a need to make women\u2019s football competitive. Meanwhile, the 10 Women Super League (WSL) teams were given M250 000 of the FIFA Relief Fund and each team got M25 000 last year.<\/p>\n

While addressing the media, Mohoanyane would not take questions about the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Offence (DCEO) snooping around the DIFA Leribe offices last Tuesday, however, he said the authority had not returned the receipt book they took with them.<\/p>\n
