Adrienne Moli has been involved with Samoan Football for the past 15 years and has always had a passion for the game. Her appointment is a vital step towards ensuring that SFSF–NC gains the exposure needed to promote and grow football in Samoa.
Moli has been actively involved as a volunteer for the SFSF-NC Fun Football and National League programs each Saturday.
Moli has also worked extensively in the business industry as a Claims Officer with Progressive Insurance (Apia) and their American Samoan branch, Oxford Insurance.
Her career change into the football media has been motivated by her desire to see Samoa football reach its full potential.
“I am very excited about my role and look forward to contributing to the development of football in Samoa. There’s a great team here at SFSF–NC and I expect to put in a lot of hard work to see our goals realised,” says Moli.
Maree joins an already productive team at Samoa Football which has made great progress since coming together in June this year.
Under the leadership of Colin Tuaa, SFSF – NC has since held a successful Business House Competition, the Men’s National League is in its sixth week with 12 clubs competing and the Fun Football Program for children up to 13 years of age has seen a big response from both parents and children.
Samoa Football also facilitated courses for referees and youth level coaches in July. Since then, two female referee participants and one female coach participant have recently returned from FIFA recognised courses in Auckland, New Zealand.
SFSF-NC Chief Executive Colin Tuaa says he is delighted to be overseeing another exciting step forward for Samoa Football.
“Adrienne Maree Moli’s appointment is another significant step for SFSF NC. Maree’s passion for football and current involvement as a volunteer and player will benefit her in her role as Media Officer. Maree has a solid background in business and brings a wealth of skills to the role. I am positive she will make an impact in her new role,” Tuaa says.
The Federation is also preparing for the commencement of the Women’s and Youth Leagues as well as the Primary Schools Competition scheduled before the end of the year.
