Trophy Tour

The Trophy tour started in India, travelled to New Zealand and then to Australia. The trophy made a pit stop in Papua New Guinea, and has left our shores for New York, in the United States of America. 

Max Abbot, Committee Member of World Cricket has been traveling with the Trophy. He described the PNG visit as exciting, and a wonderful experience for the local people to have. 

Abbot thanked the people of Gomore and neighbouring villages for their welcoming spirit and hospitality.

The first stop will be in Madang tomorrow, 13 August. Madang was chosen ahead as the first port of call this weekend ahead of Lae because of uncertainty in election-related problems currently experienced in Morobe Province capital, Lae. 
Depending on the situation in Lae, the OFC Nations Cup tour will visit Lae before heading to the Highlands region.

The planned tour is to help promote women’s football who have played extremely well to win the Cup beating Fiji 2-1 in the finals at HCF Bank Stadium in Suva, Fiji a fortnight ago.
