| Switzerland is synonymous with smooth running, so it is hardly surprising that UEFA European Women's Under-19 Championship tournament director Béatrice von Siebenthal can look back at a competition that has unfolded slickly in the Berne and Zurich regions.Teams satisfied"The teams participating here were satisfied with the training pitches, the stadiums and the accommodation, that is the most important thing in my eyes, that's what we wanted to achieve," Von Siebenthal told uefa com. "But it is too early for a general lookback, we are still in the tournament, within one or two weeks we can judge far better what has been good and not so good."Previous experienceOf course, the Swiss Football Association has plenty of experience in this field, having staged the 2002 UEFA European Under-21 Championship and 2004 U19 final rounds, with UEFA EURO 2008™ to come. Von Siebenthal said: [url=http://www.cathedralguadalupe.org/events/PressRelease.cfm]cheap world soccer jerseys[/url] "My colleagues who did the U19 two years ago gave me all information about how they did it, that was very helpful. We organised it a bit differently [url=http://www.bancroftstatebank.com/privacy.html]nfl jerseys cheap[/url] because the situation in the FA has changed, but it didn't make things too different. For the first steps I [url=http://www.shirleycorder.com/Upload.asp]wholesale soccer jerseys[/url] could count on the experience of [2004 U19 tournament director] Mario Commisetti, that was really helpful, so we could copy the organisation, that was really good."Grassroots promotionThere was also decent media coverage for women's football in Switzerland. "In Group B [around Zurich] the media coverage was not too bad compared to normal," Von Siebenthal said. "In Group A [around Berne] it was a little bit more difficult because the Swiss team was not there. To tell if we have got something [to promote] the grassroots, we will see in a few months."On-field benefitsVon Siebenthal not only has an administrative role, but is also coach of the Switzerland senior national women's team. And although the hosts failed to reach the semi-finals, they had qualified by right for three of the last four tournaments and Von Siebenthal hopes her team could begin to move into that sort of territory themselves. "We hope so, it will be two or three years until we see if we have got anything from the youth teams," she said. "We won't sit here waiting but we have qualified for four out of five U19s and that is very important for the future. But it doesn't come after. But we should be able to compete. If 12 teams qualify [url=http://www.alliedartsrc.org/wp-web.php]cheap nfl jerseys[/url] for [UEFA Womern's EURO] 2009 we would like to be one and that is a goal to achieve."
