MBABANE – Callies Happy Girls have congratulated Deputy Speaker Madala Mhlanga on his new position.

Mhlanga is Mhlangatane Member of Parliament (MP). He was last week Wednesday voted into the position by 34 MPs. Happy Girls’ Manager, Joster Mathonsi said Mhlanga was the man behind the existence of his team which joined the Eswatini Women’s Football League in 2018 under the name of Madelezini Happy Girls. This was before the team assumed the new name, Callies Happy Girls, under new Director Sithembiso ‘Ngudze’ Mamba, who is also the chairman of MTN Premier League team Tambankulu Callies.  “On behalf of Callies Happy Girls family, we would like to send our sincere gratitude to him for everything he has done for us. He is the father of the team and would help us with transport to honour games, buy us playing kits and offer financial assistance for some of our players who had challenges in paying their school fees,” he said.

History

Mathonsi further said Mhlanga’s history as a football player and lover of the sport gave them hope that he would have positive influence in parliamentary decisions that would help improve the standard of women football in the country. “As a deputy Speaker, we believe that he will represent us well and fight for the development of women football in terms of sponsorship and creating opportunities for women in the male dominated football industry,” he said. The manager further said the kingdom’s authorities needed to align themselves with the Federation of International Football Association’s (FIFA) goal for women football development as it had been sidelined and not given due support as compared to the men’s elite football.
