LaLiga and Cosafa partner to develop South African women’s football

Reconfirming the international organisation’s commitment to grassroots football development in South Africa and the greater African continent, LaLiga has once again partnered with Cosafa (Council of Southern Africa Football Associations) to grow the game across all play levels and genders.

In late July, two grassroots women- and youth-centred initiatives were carried out by Cosafa in collaboration with LaLiga. These took place over three days in the Eastern Cape’s Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality (NMBM) in the lead up to the Cosafa Women’s Championship.

First was the Women’s Community Tournament on 27 - 28 July at Gelvandale Fields.
