Rivers Angels and former Super Falcons coach Edwin Okon has stated that the introduction of the Africa women champions league will help grow the domestic league in Nigeria.
Okon speaking in a chat with www.brila.net said the decision to start the women club championship in Africa will also help bring stability and stem the tide of women players leaving the shores of the country at short notice without proper handling.
He added that the women league will now develop into a bigger league than it used to be.
“It will improve the league in Africa and not only in Nigeria. It will equally give that opportunity for our players to remain at home than leaving your club six months you’re out, three months you’re out like that and it will now provide that stability in the team and the league knowing fully well that once you do well, you’re going to represent your country.”
