Orchids a process in for success.
Success does not work overnight. It takes hard work, commitment and discipline to get up there. For PNG Orchids, there’s still work in progress. A country dominated by male in all aspects of life in general, women and girls are slowly getting their spots in the society whether it be in sports, education or professional careers. In an ever changing World, PNG like other island countries are still developing in every field of life, be in sports or others. Rugby League for women and girls started not so long ago. Give them time and one day they’ll get up there. PNG are so quick to rubbish and criticise them but have they also thought about how Kumuls got smashed 72-8 by the Australian? They even got zero at some stages and they’ve leaned and improved. It’s a process Kumuls went through and similarly the Orchids will have their turn and it only needs time and patient to finally come up to the stage where they can compete against top countries. Let this post remind us that one fine day, they will put a smile on your faces and do the country proud. For now, give credit to those who play for the team and support them irrespective of the results.
To the Orchid players, you’ve done yourself, your family, close friends and associates and of course the country oroud.
Keep shining. It’s a work in progress and never put your head down but hold your heads high and improve here on.
Best wishes from us the crew of Pacific Wantok Sports. Like and share this for our girls and women to have a fair share of moral support that they deserve.
