So will they make an impact on the international scene? And by the way what happened to cricket. Pakistan has a strong women's cricket team. Why not BD?

Great News. Hope they can continue.

Fundamentalists target women's football again.

But the organizers are determined to continue under tight security. There is a pressure from AFC to introduce Women Football League in Bangladesh.
Hopefully everything will go normal.

Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) has vowed to continue with promoting women's football in the country despite threats from a section of fundamentalist zealots.

There are plenty of US grown/born BD girls who play soccer.

Also the high schools with hostels have soccer facilities for girs.
