Steffi Jones meets the Brave Gladiators Submitted by Namibia Sport Magazine - 21 June 2010
FIFA Women’s World Cup Germany 2011 Organising Committee President, Steffi Jones arrived in the country on Monday to meet with the Namibia Football Association (NFA) Women’s football representatives and local female players.
She attended a training session of the Brave Gladiators that will be travelling to Germany from 18-20 July. Jones spoke to the players at the training session that she attended on Monday morning. “We should thank the two Jackeys (Jackey Gertze and Jacqui Shipanga) who were the pioneers of women’s football in the country,” Jones said. “You might not earn the most money, but as football players you will earn dignity and pride,” she told the players. “I hope your playing football will encourage more girls to play in the country,” Jones said when she was talking to Mamie Kasaona, the Brave Gladiators player who was recently featured in a FIFA World magazine article. Jackey Gertze of the NFA women’s desk was excited that the players got a chance to meet Jones.
“It is unbelievable that she is on Namibian soil, we just used to read about her and now we got a chance to meet her,” Gertze said. “The significance of her visit is that she will be able to motivate the girls, because in Namibia there is a stigma against girls who play football,” she added. “Her visit will bring a lot of girls into the game. Jacqui and I will have less to say to convince the girls to play, her presence here is enough,” Gertze said.
The NFA Technical Director, Klaus Stark, said that Jones came to Namibia because, “she heard about the work that Shipanga and Gertze were doing for women’s football and wanted to meet them.” “She will join the team when they get to Germany and train with them,” Stark added. The Brave Gladiators will travel to Germany during the Under 20 Women’s World Cup. They will play matches against three local clubs and attend some of the World Cup matches. “The German government will fund all the expenses in Germany while the NFA will only pay for the flights to and from Frankfurt,” Stark said. Jones’ visit follows that of her former team mate and colleague Nia Künzer, who came to Namibia in October 2009 to become the International Ambassador for the Galz & Goals project in partnership with UNICEF and SCORE Namibia and continues the excellent development partnership that the NFA enjoys with the DFB in Germany through the governments of the two countries.

NFA Gals and Goals Youth League kicks off Submitted by newsdesk of Namibia Sports Magazine, 28 June 2010
The 2010 season of the NFA Galz and Goals Youth league kicked off recently in Windhoek at El Dorado High School.
The first matches of the league, which is in its second year, were played on June 19 with seven teams taking part in the under 13 age group and eight teams in the under 15 age group.
More teams joined the league in the second week, 25-26 June, with the Under 13 teams increasing to thirteen teams. On 25 June the Under 16 girls played two matches each with SKW and Hage Geingob High School playing to a 1-1 draw in the first match. Hage Geingob were the first ones to score when Telefina Nahole’s strike beat the SKW keeper in the first half. In the second half, SKW’s Heidi Kebbel scored the equaliser as a result of a corner kick. “The game was great, but I think we can do better, our team has improved a lot in the past few weeks,” Kebbel said about her team’s performance, Amalia Ilonga, the captain of the Hage Geingob team was very confident of her team’s performance in the league. “Even though we drew this match against SKW we will win the league this year, we will work hard to make sure that we achieve this,” Ilonga said. Both teams went on to beat Theo Katjimune in their next matches. SKW won 3-1 and Hage Geingob won 2-0. Jackey Gertze from the NFA women’s desk was very impressed with the quality of play the girls exhibited during the initial stages of the league. “The play itself is totally different than from last year. Because of this league the girls have regular training and competition. They are more advanced than they were when we started the league last year,” Gertze said. “Our value objective is for girls to find their own space where they can play the sport and to get more girls to be physically active,” Gertze added. “This year we have also seen that the girls have more support from their parents, which is a good thing for the players,” she continued. Currently the leagues are active in only six towns, Windhoek, Rundu, Okahanja, Khorixas, Gobabis and Okahanja. “We want other regions to join but at the moment it’s a problem of getting people who are willing to start the leagues in the different towns. With all that has been achieved so far I am sure our sponsors will be willing to fund the leagues in other regions,” Gertze added.
Galz & Goals is a partnership between the NFA, UNICEF and SCORE (Sports Coaches Outreach) to empower girls aged 9 to 15 to live a healthy life through participation in football leagues and festivals. Football is promoted as a positive and fun way of avoiding risk behaviours associated with the spread of HIV in Namibia, such as drinking alcohol, MCP, intergenerational and transactional sex.
15.07.2010 - Galz & Goals wins at Hessequa
THE Namibian girls team took top honours at the Hessequa Cup tournament held in Riverville in the Western Cape recently. The event, which coincided with an exciting part of the FIFA World Cup, started on July 3rd and ended on the final day of the World Cup, with the Namibian team winning gold in the six-a-side and 11-a-side girls categories.
The Namibia Football Association’s team, which is part of the Galz & Goals program, also had to share their message of “girls making smart choices for a healthy life”, as they participated in the Kicking AIDS Out activities, which gets the girls talking and discussing life skills and behaviours that could put them at risk of contracting HIV.
The Galz & Goals initiative is a partnership between the NFA and SCORE Namibia, with the support of UNICEF and has been shortlisted for a prestigious award at the 2010 Beyond Sport Summit in Chicago.
The project aims to empower adolescent local girls by providing them with the knowledge to make healthy choices about their lifestyle, and provides them with the opportunity to play football.
“We left a big impression and because it is an annual tournament, it is a great platform for our girls and boys to share with others. We definitely have plans to go back again next year,” said Jackey Gertze of the NFA women’s desk.
Other countries that participated were Hungary, South Korea and China as well as various South African teams.
The SKW u/15 girls team won by three goals to nil against DSSW.
