Joining Sarita will be two HFCA players Penh Sreynou and Voeun Lisa from our Women’s football team in Phnom Penh which we run in partnership with Cambodian Childrens Fund. Sreynou & Lisa will run a coaching session for the village girls.
"I think that going to Oroong is so exciting for me and a great adventure! I want to meet all the girls over there and encourage them to be involved more in sports! Most importantly to interact and play sport with them"
