Vice President for Women in Sports in Solomon Islands, Nina Davies says more young girls should come out and play sports.
In an interview with Tok Sports, Ms Davies says the lack of competitive sports for women and girls in Solomon Islands is hindering the country from getting more medals during international sports competitions.
“We don’t have a lot of women and girl athletes playing competitive sports that should represent the country. That’s the reason why we cannot win medals because we don’t have a tough competition for women, for girls to try and get in the national team. We don’t have that. As long as you play because the number is not there, that’s how you can go in and represent the country”.
