The course which ran
from 22 to 24 April 2014 gathered 32 women instructors from 22 countries and
was held at the CAF centre in Mbokomo village outside the Cameroonian capital
Yaounde, according to Fatouma Moussa Dirieh who along with Fatouma Djama
Toukaleh represented their country ‘Djibouti’ in the course.
"It is the second time
that I am taking part in such course---in July last year I benefitted from such
high profile course and I really practiced what I learned from there in my
country where women’s football was revived under the leadership of my president
Souleiuman Hassan Waberi who is fully committed to women’s football promotion
in the country” Fatouma Moussa Dirieh told CECAFA Media.
She said that the course
was more beneficial to her country whose women’s football activities were
revived after years of absence with the dedication of president Souleiman and
his committee.
"I am really very hopeful
that our women’s national team will appear in the near future international competitions
and we are sure that will happen, as our federation is weighting on the
rebuilding of women’s football power in the country” Fatouma Moussa Dirieh told
CECAFA media over night on Friday.
The female instructor
became the first in the East and Central Africa region to lead a top level club
to the 2012 CECAFA Kagame club cup held in Tanzanian capital Dar Es Salaam.
