UEFA has article on NWNT 2012 looking to the future: http://www.uefa.com/womenseuro/news/newsid=1742420.html interesting to note below quote from Landsem: C. Pedersen not mentioned - is she injured? did she quit team? that would be a huge shame! If anyone knows, please post. Landsem has also been able to hand scholarships funded by the Football Association of Norway (NFF) and the Olympiatoppen fund to key talents Emilie Haavi, Elise Thorsnes, Lene Mykjåland, Ingrid Hjelmseth, Ingvild Stensland, Isabell Herlovsen and Marita Skammelsrud Lund. "These are our key players, who we want to take the lead in training and during matches," said Landsem, who turns 50 in March. "We will also monitor them closely when they are with their clubs."
LSK Kvinner has given her a contract, but I guess Landsem & Olympiatoppen doesn't think she is serious enough about her play and therefore doesn't consider her a key talent.
