“Randy Waldrum Steps Down as Super Falcons Coach Due to Personal Reasons
In a shocking turn of events, Randy Waldrum has tendered his resignation as the head coach of the Super Falcons, Nigeria’s national women’s football team. The American tactician cited health concerns regarding his wife as the primary reason for his decision.
In a heartfelt letter dated September 12th, Waldrum expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to lead the team while acknowledging the challenges he faced in recent weeks. He stated, “It’s been a very difficult few weeks following the Olympics, with my wife’s health issues, and the worries that obviously come with that.”
Waldrum’s resignation comes as a surprise to many, given his impressive tenure with the Super Falcons. He took the reins in 2020 and led the team to several victories, including a fourth-place finish at the 2022 WAFCON.
The coach’s decision to step down allows the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) ample time to find a suitable replacement. Waldrum expressed his confidence in the team’s potential, describing them as “incredible.” His resignation letter concluded with a message of appreciation and best wishes for the team’s future success.
The NFF has yet to comment on Waldrum’s resignation or announce a potential successor. As the search for a new head coach begins, fans and supporters of the Super Falcons will undoubtedly miss Waldrum’s leadership and expertise. We wish him and his wife all the best during this challenging time.
