Seven days into their preparations for next March's AFC Women's Asian Cup in Australia, Afeida Khandokar and her teammates are relishing the opportunity to train in a new, refreshing environment at the Korean Export Processing Zone (KEPZ) in Anwara, Chattogram.

Afeida and Sapna will feature for RTC Women -- the only Bhutanese club in the upcoming AFC Women's Champions League.

Bangladesh women’s football team captain Afeida Khandaker, used to being under the spotlight, watched on from the stands with her parents, as her elder sibling Afra Khandaker fought in the 52kg weight category final of the Women’s Boxing Championship against New York-based boxer Zinnat Ferdous at the Mohammad Ali Boxing Stadium in Dhaka on Thursday.
