Liberia Female Amputee National Team Excluded from Women's Amputee Football World Cup Due to Financial Constraints

MONROVIA – The Liberia Female Amputee National Team has been excluded from the draw for the upcoming Women's Amputee Football World Cup due to a lack of financial support. 

Despite being initially listed among 12 nations set to participate in the inaugural tournament, reports indicate that Liberia was unable to meet the financial requirements necessary to register the team in time. This unfortunate development has prevented the team from competing in the highly anticipated global event.

The exclusion highlights the ongoing challenges faced by the Liberia Female Amputee National Team in securing funding and support for international tournaments. Without the necessary financial backing, the team was unable to cover the costs associated with their participation in the competition, which would have been a historic moment for the country.

Efforts are now being called for to address the funding gaps that continue to hinder Liberia’s representation on the international stage, particularly in sports for persons with disabilities.
