A Saudi Shura Council member called for women-only football teams to compete in a championship, according to Almarsd newspaper.
Dr Iqbal Dandari urged big Saudi football clubs like Al Hilal, Al Nasr, Al Itihad and Al Ahli to take the initiative and set up female football teams.
A member of the Human Rights Committee, Dr Iqbal hailed the landmark decision allowing Saudi families to enter football stadiums, starting early 2018.
