The Young Queens had their afternoon training session today at Nkoloma Stadium which is the match venue for Friday’s game against The Young Scorchers.

Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) Technical Director Lyson Zulu was also available throughout the team’s session to offer some support and also witness how the team is shaping up under the watchful eye of Coach Charles Haalubono.

Zulu encouraged the girls to utilize this opportunity that has been given to them and also urged the team to work hard and do well this Friday.
