Super Falcons head coach Randy Waldrum has expressed confidence that the upcoming friendly against Canada will be instrumental in preparing his team for the 2024 Olympic Games.

The match is scheduled to take place in Sevilla, Spain, on Wednesday.

Waldrum acknowledged the challenging nature of the test against the reigning Olympic champions, highlighting its importance in refining the team’s strategies and assessing player combinations ahead of their Olympic campaign.

“We are expecting a great game. The players have worked extremely hard, unfortunately, a few players joined the camp a bit late, but the level has been extremely high,” Waldrum said on the Super Falcons Show.

“The players are focused and looking forward to the Olympics. The friendly will allow us to work on a couple of things that we have practiced so far in training.

“It will also help us see some players and look for the best combinations ahead of our opening game against Brazil.

“I think everyone is ready. The players are tired of playing against each other. They are ready to face a good team. We are all looking forward to the game against Canada.”
