Saudi Arabia Women’s football team to fight off against their rivals

The new Saudi Women’s Premier League kicks off featuring the five biggest local clubs and overseas players. Eight teams are to compete for over 56 matches for an SR1.43 million prize pool first Division League is to also launch next month, taking the total number of teams in both competitions to 25.

The new structure has attracted traditional men’s Saudi Pro League clubs such as Asian Champions League champions Al-Hilal, in addition to Al-Nassr, Al-Ahli, Al-Ittihad, and Al-Shabab, to join the new top-tier league.

The newly launched league has not only captured attention locally but has also welcomed an influx of talented players from across the region and the rest of the world.

With a historic prize pool of almost $380,500 (SR1.43 million), the Premier League will see eight teams compete on a home-and-away basis over the next 14 weeks, for a total of 56 matches. Meanwhile, the First Division League, launching on Nov. 11, will play host to 17 teams from across the Kingdom who will battle over a prize pool of almost $175,580 (SR 660,000), with the champion promoted to the Premier League.

The new leagues come on the back of major progress across all areas of women’s football in Saudi Arabia, from youth development to coaching to refereeing.

Last month, the national team took part in its first-ever matches on home soil against Bhutan, with the first fixture seeing the hosts bounce back from a 3-1 deficit at half-time to claim a 3-3 draw thanks to Bandari Al-Mubarak and Nora Ibrahim’s strikes in the closing 15 minutes.

The second match was also a six-goal thriller with the visitors getting the upper hand in a 4-2 victory. Led by German head coach Monika Staab, the Saudi team made its international debut earlier this year with two victories against the Seychelles and Maldives.

Transformative grass-roots investment has also seen the launch of three regional training centers welcoming hundreds of 6 to 17-year-old girls.

In addition, the newly launched 2022 Girls’ Schools League has welcomed almost 50,000 registrants representing 4,768 teams in 1,906 schools across all corners of the Kingdom. SAFF delivered a total of 40 D license coaching courses, certifying 857 teachers in the process. It also upskilled 544 teachers to officiate the matches by undergoing 15 extensive courses.

Saudi Arabia’s investment in the women’s game also stretches to staging regional tournaments. It recently staged the West Asian Football Federation 3rd Women’s Futsal Championship in Jeddah, with the hosts finishing with a silver medal. SAFF also announced an intention to host the 2026 Women’s AFC Asian Cup, with growing the game across the continent central to the bid.

    This cast photo mostly shows a bunch of guys.

    When the official “Star Wars VII” cast was announced Tuesday, fans everywhere finally relaxed upon learning all the main original-trilogy actors would be returning for the new film.
    Along with the likes of Harrison Ford as Han Solo and Peter Mayhew as
    Chewbacca, we also learned the names of new additions like Max von Sydow and Andy Serkis. But only
    two women were named to major roles: Carrie Fisher reprising her role as Princess Leia and an as-yet-unnamed part
    for Daisy Ridley, a relative newcomer. That leaves us with a male-heavy
    cast, a fact that and lamented.

    The the scales might become just slightly more balanced, however, citing “sources” who say the casting
    process isn’t over and that at least one major female
    role is still waiting to be filled. This could
    bring more balance to the galactic gender equation. It also means
    the “Star Wars VII” casting rumors aren’t quite over
    yet. Feel free to speculate about who might be called upon to fill this mysterious slot.
