The winning team New Zealand was clearly the best team at the tournament and looked technically and tactically well prepared. They showed good tactical ability, both in their attacking play and in the reliability of their defensive organisation. The technical skills shown by the New Zealand players, especially in attack, often provided the team with a controlled and well structured forward movement that resulted in goal scoring opportunities. Their short and long passing combinations were effective against most teams, as was their wing play with the wide backline players moving forward to combine with midfield players and strikers to deliver dangerous crosses into the opponents Penalty Area. The New Zealand team had several players with the ability to control the tempo of the game and unsettle any opponent by their mobility and tactical awareness. The players’ on-field performance was enhanced by an off-field team of knowledgeable and effective management, sports science and medical personnel. This support team delivered player welfare, after game recovery, injury treatment and nutritional assistance to the players throughout the tournament. Other teams In general most teams had insufficient preparation time together as player identification and team selection was late and financial assistance limited. Tonga and Samoa showed tremendous progress at the tournament in team organisation and game awareness from their pre tournament preparation stage mainly due to their residential camp training program and a number of selected games. It seemed no coincidence that the top four places at the tournament (New Zealand, Tonga, PNG and Samoa) were filled by teams that had a pre tournament training and game schedule with their Member Association committed to providing the players with the best opportunity for success. Not all players and teams are equal TECHNICAL AND TACTICAL OBSERVATIONS • While the average chronological age of the players was similar, the playing age of the girls differed significantly. The winning team’s average playing age was 11 years 1 month, where most other teams were significantly less. • The level of domestic competition for girls and women’s football in most of the island countries is still developing or nonexistent for young girls. If a Member Association is to have a competitive international program then a strong domestic club competition is essential. • Training and playing opportunities for the talented female player with facilities and resources to develop their skills to an international standard is varied between countries to the extreme. Some countries had a structured periodisation program that provided facilities and financial support; while other countries had no forward planning program, training and playing opportunities or financial support. • There is a close correlation between the quality and frequency of training and the number of high level games where players are able to gain match experience, and the success of a team at an international level. Most of the participating teams at the tournament had little opportunity to gain the required experience. • Pre tournament preparation between teams at this tournament varied between countries from approximately three years in advance (including early identification and development opportunities) to one month before the tournament. • Medical and sport science support provides the players with the best opportunity to repeat high performance actions that the game demands to be successful. There were extreme variations between the teams in the medical and sports science knowledge and personnel afforded to each of the teams and at times this was detriment to performance and player welfare.
