An all women team from Krgyzstan
Posted by Kyrgyzstan - 14/03/2007
On 20th of January Krgyzstan held their first street soccer tournament for women’s under the motto “Red card for Homelessness” at the 6th building of the gymnasium in Kyrgyz National University. It was organised by the Public Fund DCCA (Development and Cooperation in Central Asia) to attract attention to the problems experienced by women without a home.
The winners of this national tournament of street soccer among homeless women will represent Kyrgyz Republic as they make their debut at the Copenhagen 2007 Homeless World Cup.
Their first time at the Homeless World Cup they will be an unknown quantity and with an all female team they will undoubtedly attract a big fan base.
