Former head coach of the Brave Gladiators Uerikondjera Mammie Kasaona has her eyes set on Rietfontein to pull players for the national under-20 team.

Seen playing for Galz & Goals in the Namibia Football Association’s Women Super Cup last Saturday, her side beat Right Way Football Club 4-0.

A few watching the match took offence with the fact that the former head coach of the senior women’s team was on the pitch rather than scouting for talent.

“She shouldn’t be playing but rather using her position to scout for players,” said a fan.

Focus on one thing

Kasaona said she no longer coaches the Brave Gladiators, adding that Robert Nauseb is the head coach.

Nauseb is also the assistant coach of the senior men’s team, Brave Warriors.

“I’m the player coach for the under-20 team,” she said.

She added that there are no newcomers at this stage and that is why she will be travelling to the Youth Games, which will be held in Rietfontein from 16 to 18 December, to scout as players from all regions will be present.
