The Andorran Football Federation (FAF) has marked International Women’s Day 2022 by underlining how this year’s main theme – ‘break the bias’ – drives all of its communication about the women’s game
Since 2015, FAF has fulfilled its promise to give equal visibility to both the men’s and women’s game, whether posting highlight videos of the national teams in action on its official website or streaming all domestic league fixtures.
“Our goal is to give the same level of communication men’s and women’s football in Andorra,” said Mr Felix Álvarez, FAF President this week, after meeting UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin in Nyon.
“We want to bring the public closer to the game in Andorra. That means increasing the number of people watching and playing women’s football as well as men’s,” added Mr Álvarez
Andorra’s national women’s team debuted in 2015 with a 1-0 friendly win against Gibraltar, before making their first ever competitive appearance in the preliminary round of UEFA Women’s EURO 2017.
