The management of Bayelsa Queens have announced their decision to pull out of the Betsy Obaseki Women Football Tournament (BOWFT).
The Prosperity Girls made it known to our correspondence following a letter sent to them by the Edo State Football Association (ESFA) after Delta Queens protest over the Yenagoa based side use of two players.
The chairman of Bayelsa Queens, Pastor Robin Apreala said the club would be pulling out of the tournament and will be returning to their base in Yenagoa because the organizers didn’t give them a fair hearing.
He added, the BOWFT is a preseason competition where any player that’s willing to play for a club can be used.
“Bayelsa Queens FC of Yenagoa will be pulling out of the tournament even though we have qualified for the Quarter Finals of the on going BOWFT due to the one sided judgement by the organisers in favour of Delta Queens without giving us a fair hearing.
“This is a Pre-Season tournament and you can use any player that is willing to play for you.
Good bye to BOWFT, henceforth Bayelsa Queens FC will not honour any of their invitations.”
