Official Game Football: NIKE Total 90 OMNI AFC football

There has been some progress made since the last eNews. At YingFeng Sport Park, two pitches have been laid with new Bermuda grass and now will be nurtured until the big kick off of the Deaflympics Football Competitions.

The other two pitches will have new grass laid by March and then, weather permitting; the grass surface will be in top notch for the 24 teams to compete on.

The B1 vacant place has been allocated to Thailand. So the updated Women Football Competition Draw now looks like this:
