TAPPING OF GODFATHERS PUSHED
BY CEDELF TUPAS
The Philippine Football Federation yesterday vowed to give greater attention to women's football in the country even as it agreed to mobilize soccer godfather across the country to help in implementing PFF programs.
In a statement, PFF president Johnny Romualdez said the football body resolved to promote women's football not only through its programs but also getting the representatives of this sector to join the operations side of the PFF.
Romualdez said football is undergoing tremendous development
in the Philippines, citing the admission of seven new football associations
as regular members and four probationary members to the PFF during the
football Congress and Board of Governors meeting in Iloilo City Saturday.
