Our captain hit with ACL tear

 Assile Toufaily suffered an ACL tear and will have her surgery earlier next year. She stated “At the end of last season, I had taken the decision to focus on my studies and not sign for any team. Then after many tries, some people convinced me to play for another season or two, to prove my worth. So I decided to sign for Safa hoping for a season better than the last 3 disappointing ones. 
The start of the season was good thanks to the intense pre season I had, and I was convinced day after day that this year will be different. Then the match vs BFA came and I got injured. What was at first diagnosed by two doctors as a simple hit, turned out to be a complete tear of the #acl in my left knee, which obviously ended my season.

A big big thank you goes to my personal #1 physio @elie_metni , my go-to whenever I need anything, who was the first to ask for an MRI. 
I don’t know if I do believe in bad luck, “3en”, or God’s will, but all I know is that it is mentally draining, especially when it comes to wanting to give to the team but being unable to. But I got this, I’ll be stronger.

Recovery starts now, before the surgery with physio sessions with Elie and the team at @aac_clinic.

Injury makes the comeback sweeter??. #SafaWFC

We all will be waiting for your return to Safa WFC as you are a huge and wonderful part of our team and undoubtedly have many more achievements coming your way. But for now, it’s time to rest and focus on your rehab.

High Five ?

It’s one of the most important games and the girls were up to it with our 5th win this season. With all the circumstances of this game specifically we dominated everything. We had many injuries but whoever was called for this game gave 1000% on the field and off the field.

Five goals from Nicole, Jana 2 and Samira 2 made us level on points with SAS who we are playing next weekend. Great win with amazing performance we couldn’t have wished for something better.

No. 7

After one of the toughest weeks with injuries, suspensions and many other things we’re back with a win against Primo Sports Academy. They did forfeit the game but a win is a win and that’s what were playing for.

What’s magical about number 7 is all of our wins in the league were 7-0 two injured players wear 7 and 77. If you take a closer look there are 7 Safa players in the picture as well.

With two new players on the scoring sheet (Joelle – Nour) and another hat-trick of scoring this time from Anji we’re 3rd in group A. 10 points 3 wins 1 draw 22 goals for and 1 against

She will be back

A week ago our player Jennifer Chehade gone into surgery to fix her broken ankle after she suffered a horrible injury during Safa WFC league match. An injury that have put us all head over toes because it’s a first time experience for all of us.

Today we’re all playing and working hard for Jenni wishing her a speedy recovery and can’t wait to see her back with us.

Here is her own statement “One week has passed since my successful ankle surgery??I just want to say thank you for your love thank you for your support thank you for your messages thank you for your prayers.
