The Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA) has confirmed a tragic incident that occurred on Wednesday during a referees’ training seminar.
“One of the female participants, who had attended with her two children, suffered the sudden and unexpected loss of her infant child during the course of the event.
“Despite immediate efforts to render assistance, the child sadly passed away,” the association said in a statement.
ZIFA added that the matter had been referred to the Zimbabwe Republic Police, who are now handling the case in accordance with the law.
No further details were released, though the association said it is cooperating fully with the relevant authorities and is offering support to the bereaved mother during this difficult time.
