Following the disbursement of FIFA Covid-19 Relief Support Fund to the football family including Women’s football sector, the Gambia Football Federation has constituted a Special Committee (Procurement) for the purchase of kits and equipment for all Women League Clubs (1st and 2nd Div) and Regional Clubs respectively.

The Committee’s inauguration was held at Football House on Wednesday 16th September, 2020 presided over by GFF President Lamin Kaba Bajo who first congratulated the Committee members for their appointment into the “Special Committee“. He said the primary objective of the Committee is to purchase kits and football equipment for Women’s football in conformity with procurement standards. “We know that one of the fundamental areas for improvement in developing women’s football is kit and equipment and this why i really need to see both 1st, 2nd Div and the Regional teams to be well equipped with football materials“, Bajo noted.

An ardent supporter of Women’s football, Mr Bajo’s passion for the Women’s game go beyond reveling a legacy for Gambian football as “whatever we do concerning women’s football development I am championing it and want to see us to set a legacy“, he noted.

The initiative is received with applause from the Women’s Football Association, Women’s football Committee and its entities. The Special Committee is headed by GFF Exco Member Mr Sadibou Kamaso who also congratulated and thanked the appointed members for their deserved inclusion into the “Special Committee“. Mr Kamaso noted that the GFF has absolute trust and confidence by bringing Women’s football family together in this committee for transparency purposes. “The GFF will not impose on any women’s football team but rather the clubs will inform the GFF what they need and it will be purchased as requested because the clubs have a better understanding of what they need“. He assured the Committee that quality materials would be purchased “that will last longer and can be used effectively for the purpose of accountability“.
