They have very little fans but they keep going thanks to their effort and pasion to the sport. Among other association members, Fatima helps them organizing a match against Atletico de Madrid Feminas. The goal is to create a big event in Tangier, give some visibility to the femenine sport and bring down the barriers between two different cultures.
