Will women's football take off in Malaysia?


Women's football needs more grassroots development and support all around for it to take off in Malaysia.

FOOTBALL is arguably one of the most popular sports in the world and yet the women’s game has never really taken off here in Malaysia.

In other traditional and even non-traditional footballing nations, women's football has been embraced and developed. Throughout the years, talents like Canada’s Christine Sinclair, Americans Mia Hamm, Michelle Akers and Kristine Lilly and Brazilian trio Marta, Sissi and Cristiane have gone on to set the international stage alight.
