Head coach of the Nigeria Under-20 women’s national team, Peter Dedevbo, has invited 36 players to camp for preparation for next month’s Fifa Under-20 Women’s World Cup qualifying match against Liberia.
The Super Falconets coach has recalled goalkeeper Sandra Chiichii (inexplicably dropped from the Super Falcons’ final team to the FIFA World Cup in Canada), as well as midfielder Osarenoma Igbinovia and striker Chinwendu Ihezuo.
Dedevbo led the country’s Under-20 women’s to a second-placed finish at the 2014 finals and was recently handed a fresh term in charge of the girls.
He has also called up a number of players who starred in the U-17 team at the FIFA World Cup in Costa Rica early last year, including Ugochi Emenayo, Esther Elijah, Tessy Biawho, Uchenna Kalu, Mary Ologbosere, Joy Bokiri and Rashidat Ajibade
Each of the 36 girls are expected to report at the team’s Serob Legacy Hotel, Abuja camp on Tuesday, 23rd June, 2015 with her training kit, medical certificate of fitness and international passport.
