2016 Olympic Games Qualifiers: Lionesses In Camp

lionnes-entrainementThey are preparing for the upcoming game against Liberia on May 3, 2015.

There is no respite for the Indomitable Lionesses. Less than one week after beating Ethiopia to qualify for the 2015 African Games, the Lionesses went into camp to prepare for the upcoming Olympics games qualifier match against Liberia. The match was supposed to take place at the end of the month of April but was moved to early May at the request of Cameroon, to give the Lionesses time to prepare for the World Cup to take place in Canada. Both the away and return leg matches will be taking place in Yaounde due to the fact that Liberia is just coming out from an Ebola epidemic. As such, the away leg will take place in Yaounde on May 3rd and the return leg, three days later on May 6th.

To prepare for the encounters, the coach of the Lionesses has published a list of 26 home-based players to take part in the training camp. They will be joined by 14 professionals next week. Enow Ngatchu says the present training camp will continue even after the dual confrontation with Liberia up to the World Cup.

Meanwhile, the girls have been paid bonuses owed them for the qualifier games against Ethiopia. They are now expecting clarifications on the amount of the different bonuses which will be given to them during their participation at the World cup in Canada. After the World Cup in May, the Lionesses will have to prepare to defend their title at the All African Games in Congo-Brazzaville in September.

In a related development, the Lionesses will have to camp in the United States before the world cup and not in Canada as was initially announced by the president of the Normalisation Committee, Joseph Owona. In effect, a team comprising the general coordinator of national teams, Pierre Claver Oyono and the head of competitions at Fecafoot, Paul Mobizo’o, are currently in Seattle-USA to prospect for possible sites to host the Lionesses. However, the departure of the Lionesses for the United States is still hanging on a balance as Fecafoot is still awaiting government subvention to foot the bills of the female national football squad.
