The women's team beat Iran's Shahdari Sarjan 2-1
in the final on Saturday night, in an exciting match at the Aqaba Development
Company stadium.
While talking to Coach Khalid Nimer of the Amman
Club, he said: "I am definitely thankful for the players and their
efforts, hard work, and all the hours of training we conducted every week."
The coach also emphasized that "winning
is a great feeling, and it's even better when it's an international tournament.
Winning the local league is not out of
the ordinary for a club in our status, but after this win, it proved that we
are on a high level."
After the great performances in the tournament,
three of the best players in Amman Club FC were offered contracts to play
abroad.
"I'm very happy for the girls. Finally,
our players get the spotlight they deserve. They are able to have a
professional career in other leagues, and it works perfectly for both parties, our
league and the leagues that our players are going to," he added.
Sustaining a local league is one of the main
goals of the Jordan Football Federation; however, marketing their players to foreign
leagues is something they are working on as it can help the players gain
experience that is needed to join the national team.
After winning the Jordanian Women's League,
the
Amman Club FC was chosen to represent Jordan in the AFC Women's Club Champions.
