all footballer dreams of playing in, and even winning, the World Cup.With the ongoing Women's World mug boosting the popularity of the women's game, a generation of girls are brute inspired to emulate players subsequent to Marta of Brazil and Alex Morgan of the allied States and shine on the world stage.One girl paying near attention to the matches in France is Chen Wan Xin, whose football motivation started 15 years ago, subsequent to she was 12. Her football later was played during recess, but her teammates were all boys. No new girl in Chung Cheng tall learned (Main) was interested."I didn't know that girls played football because there was no women's football shown on TV and YouTube was not as popular as now," she recalled."I was breathing in a bubble, not knowing that there was girls' football. all along, I thought I was playing a 'boy's sport'." quick tackle to the present.Football has become Chen's great passion. She is the captain of house United's women's team and also an admin in grassroots and women's football at the Football link of Singapore (FAS).Her journey mirrors the local women's football scene at various levels.She was the rare girl who played the sport: An FAS survey of primary learned pupils in 2014 noted nearly one in two kids desire to operate football. But and no-one else 5.9 per cent of boys and 1.6 per cent of girls actually do.That prompted the FAS to start its first all-girl training centres for those aged five to 12 at Bowen and Queensway secondary Schools a year later, subsequent to a collect intake of very nearly 30.A third middle will be launched at Meridian secondary learned bordering month.FAS general governor for grassroots and women's football, Julie Teo, 56, said: "We wish to growth the number of players who may be nurtured and chosen for the national teams, though also increasing the level of professionalism and marketability of women's football to attract sponsors for the domestic leagues and competitions."Promising players at these FAS centres are placed in an Under-12 fee squad that was formed last year.There are also U-14 and U-16 teams that adjunct the U-19 and national senior sides.The domestic league has been expanded in the last few years. There are now very nearly 400 amateur players from 15 clubs playing in the Women's National League and top-tier Women's Premier League, in the works from eight teams in 2016.National midfielder Putri Nur Syaliza, 16, who started playing football subsequent to she was four, emphasised the importance of the programmes."It's fine that women's football is having a lot of mini tournaments and games for the younger ones to enjoy and gain more playing experience," she said."It's also fine that they start developing players from a youthful age, so... they can have a fine foundation."STILL A operate IN PROGRESS
Despite the initiation of more national age-group teams, opportunities for youth players - particularly those from the secondary schools - are limited.Thirteen teams participated in this year's Schools National girls' B hostility competition compared to more than 80 in the boys' category.For those girls aged from 13 to 17 who desire to operate regularly, they are in limbo - too archaic for the FAS centres and too youthful for the amateur clubs that usually do not have a youth programme.Home allied women's team head coach Azrulnizam Shah Sohaimi, 35, said: "More attention has to be paid to the bottom of the pyramid. If we can have 20-30 teams playing, it will make a enlarged base of players and steer in the works standards."BAKING COOKIES
Financial withhold is substitute obstacle.According to the FAS' annual financial credit for 2017-2018, the sum amount spent on women's football was $266,877, compared to the $472,335 budget for admin the 23-team men's National Football League.There was almost no budget subsequent to Azrulnizam wanted to start a women's team at house allied in 2016, and it was a struggle just to acquire basic training items."Thankfully I have associates who are coaches too and they had spare equipment subsequent to balls and bibs (which we borrowed)," he said.To fund a training trip to Thailand, the team baked cookies and raised $5,000 to subsidise the costs.Another oft-cited disorder is the nonappearance of media coverage.There were 133 print articles very nearly Singapore men's football in The Straits epoch last year and just five on women's football.Former national left-back Nur Aniqah Imana Azman, 28, noted this was the first epoch she has been interviewed.The Simei allied FC artist said: "The media plays a big portion in promoting women's football and it should be highlighted just as much as men's football."Marketing and withhold from FAS should be equal for both teams as well. They shouldn't just focus on the men's team but also broadcast the women's team equally."BACK FROM THE WILDERNESS
Things are at least looking in the works for the national women's team.In January 2015, they played their first international kind in two years. past then, they have been involved in 26 games.Last year, the FAS, subsequent to European governing body Uefa's support, hosted an international quadrangular involving the national teams of Indonesia, Luxembourg and Maldives.After an all-time low of No. 141 in 2015, the Singapore women's team were ranked as tall as 89th in 2017. They are now 120th in the dome of 155.The squad, crucially, are also much younger subsequent to an average age of 21. These well-ventilated faces back to raise standards, said national centre-back Charmaine Lim, 29."The younger players bring a substitute set of challenges to competitions, even in local leagues, and subsequent to more of them, it means that feat for a position in the national squad will be more competitive."National captain Angelyn Pang, 28, said the team's bordering try is to qualify for the SEA Games for the first epoch past 2003."It may seem subsequent to an uphill task but we'll be involved difficult to tally up from our subsequent to matches subsequent to fall in with analyses and corrective training," she added.For FAS' Teo, the operate never ends. The organisation, she said, has been "conducting outreach programmes in schools to introduce women's football and back participation in the sport".She added: "We will continue to operate subsequent to the schools to allow withhold in coaching, training sessions and clinics." new reporting by Laura Chia
