Players like Kleintjie Fredericks, Juliana Skrywer, Shirley Cloete and Tomalina Adams will do well to put on a good showing during the tour.<\/p>\n<p>Shipanga added that they also want to use the opportunity to already expose the majority of the u\/20 players to competitive football and thus prepare them adequately for the 2012 Zone 6 Games in Zambia. The team will be captained by 20-year-old Stacey Naris, a former pupil from Eldorado High School.<\/p>\n<p>Also making the trip will be NFA women&#8217;s desk head Jackey Gertze, supported by NFA secretary general Barry Rukoro, who has been invited to attend a three-day Fifa Women&#8217;s Football symposium in Frankfurt and participate in panel discussions as well as deliver a presentation on the successful Galz &#038; Goals programme in Namibia.<\/p>\n<p>Shipanga will not make the trip with the team. She will be working at the Fifa Women&#8217;s Football World Cup in Germany as technical study member (TSG), leaving the team in the capable hands of team manager Natasha Cloete, NFA technical director Klaus Staerk and Karl-Heinz Griesshaber, who is a technical expert from Germany.<\/p>\n<p>The players are expected to report for their three-day Windhoek camp at 15h00 on June 15 at Soccer House.<\/p>\n<p>In the squad are: Emma Naris, Lovisa Mulunga, Lena Noroses, Albertha Dawes, Vitapamwe Kamahene, Carmel Don, Zenatha Coleman, Kleintjie Fredericks, Juliana Skrywer, Shirley Cloete, Tomalina Adams, Stacey Naris, Marele Polster, Ndapewa Katuta, Susanna Eises, Monique Khrone, Lorraine Jossop, Elmarie Fredericks, Rejoice Kasaona and Vewewiza Kotjipati.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read the article:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201105301595.html\" title=\"Namibia: Young Gladiators Braced for Germany\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Namibia: Young Gladiators Braced for Germany<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> 26 May 2011 THE Namibia Football Association has selected a relatively young team of 20 female players for their tour of Germany next month.
