The Ajumako based side finished 2nd in the southern Sector last season with 15 points after 10 matches, 4 behind eventual winners Hasaacas ladies.

But Mr. Duncan, who saw some of his players left at the end of last season, believes his side still has the experience to win this season’s championship.

Speaking in an interview after their match week two victory over Halifax Ladies, the Soccer Intellectuals CEO said, “You see experience also counts, they played well but only the better side won. Last year we were second and this year we want to pick up to try and see whether we can take the trophy”

“So it’s like building up. We couldn’t win our first match after having some challenges. Moreover, some of my girls have decided not to play again, so they left. The team I presented last year is different from that of this year and I think getting to the end of the first round, we’ll start playing good football”, Mr. Duncan added.

Soccer Intellectuals are currently second in the Southern Sector of the Ghana Women’s League with 4 points, 2 behind defending champions Hasaacas Ladies after two matches.

Hearts Of Oak Abandon Chase For Coach Yussif Basigi

Accra Hearts of Oak have abondoned the chase for Sekondi Hasaacas coach Yussif Basigi, footballcrusader.com can confirm.

The Phobians were looking to rope the experienced coach nto the fold as a replacement to head coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi, who until last night had his job hanging by a small thread, have given the coach more time to perfect the team else face the sack.

Almost all the coaches Hearts lined up for the coaching job have shied away from it with different excuses. But Yussif Basigi who looked interested in the prospect of coaching Hearts, later opted out citing a few reasons he can’t take up the offer.

“Yes we spoke to him but looking at his work schedule with Hasaacas Ladies, and the Black Queens, it will not be very efficient to have him. We want a coach who can or will devote his time to us and has the needed concentration.”

“So to us it’s one of those things in football and both parties have agreed that it can’t be possible”, a member of the Hearts Board told footballcrusader.com.”

As it stands now, Hearts of Oak are no longer in search of a head coach, especially after the Board informed Kenichi Yatsuhashi of their decision to allow him continue with his job.

Shocking: Women"s League Champions Receive $800 As Prize Money

Winners of the 2014/15 Women’s League Championship, Hasaacas Ladies received an amount of $800 as their prize money, footballcrusader.com can confirm.

Coach Basigi’s side who are the defending champions, beat a very determined Ampem Darkoa Ladies 1-0 at the Tema sports stadium on Sunday afternoon to lift the trophy for keeps after winning it thrice in a row.

However, after their toil season long, they received a mere $800 as their prize money. This according to our investigations was even announced at the Tema stadium on Sunday as they were presented with the giant trophy after the 1-0 win.

Runners up, Ampem Darkoa Ladies were also rewarded with $540, an action that many have mentioned is woefully inadequate for both teams looking at how much is involved in preparing Clubs for matches all season.

This revelation is quite shocking to say the least especially taking into account the prize money for their male counterparts in the Ghana Premier League.

Coach Basigi’s side who are the defending champions, beat a very determined Ampem Darkoa Ladies 1-0 at the Tema sports stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Playing a very determined and tactical game, both teams went into the game very confident and managed to create a couple of matches, but wasted all.

The first half ended goalless, and soon after resumption of the second, both teams were at it again forcing their way into each other’s half to get the first goal of the game.

Ampem Darkoa Ladies were slightly on top in terms of ball possession, but the much experienced Hasaacas Ladies did the most important thing of the game and that was to get a goal.

Samira Sulemana against the run of play headed home the only goal of the match from a corner kick in the 30th  minute.
