    A new job for former Football Ferns coach Jitka  Klimkova

    A new job for former Football Ferns coach Jitka Klimkova


    Four months after giving up her post with New Zealand following an investigation into an employment related matter - Klimkova's been named to take charge of the Czech national team.

    The 50-year-old has remained in a high performance role with the national body following that investigation.

    A group of players then told The Herald they had expressed concerns to the national body over inappropriate behaviour.

    She's signed on with her home nation until the 2027 World Cup - saying it's the right time to return home.
