The Lesotho Senior Women’s National team, Mehalalitoe will head to Malawi at the end of the month where they will face the Scorchers in two international friendly matches.<\/h2>\n

Malawi will host the two matches in Blantyre with the first game scheduled for Friday 29th while the final game of the friendly series will play on Sunday 31st also at Mpira Stadium.<\/p>\n

The Shalane Lehohla’s coached side will use the two international friendly matches to fine tune preparations for the COSAFA Women’s Championship to be played later this year.<\/p>\n

However, the team will have to do without Kick4Life Women players, who will be playing at the CAF Women’s Champions League\/COSAFA Qualifiers which also gets underway late in August.<\/p>\n

Mehalalitoe are currently having a non-residential camp training three days a week and will troop into a full-time camp before flying out to Malawi on August 27th.<\/p>\n
