Women's soccer specific stadium!


(Empty wasted garbage filled space which could be cleared and turned into a field in Sidi Moumen...one example of many)

I know this is not news from North Africa/Middle East but rather from Kennesaw, Georgia, but roll with me.

The new expansion women's pro team in Atlanta is building a soccer specific stadium in partnership with Kennesaw State University, a $16.5 million, 8,300-seat stadium. They are saying it will be one of the only women specific soccer stadium's in the world (which may or may not be true, not sure) and if true, then it is pretty exciting and could work, particularly in the states because of the women's game's popularity.

Perhaps we can convince the mayor of Sidi Moumen to build a field for Nassim, the women's team. There is enough empty space filled with nothing but garbage, I'm sure they could clear a bit of land, help the environment as well as local women's football. No, actually, what we need more are apartment building too expensive for inhabitants or some new sort of INDH center that stands empty most days but is a great impressive notch on the local governments CV demonstrating their ability to, as superficially as possible, help local citizens.
