Women's football captain departs club over offensive 'Silly Saturday' costumes
“When I first saw it, I was outraged and disgusted,” Krienke said.
“I could not believe that he was dressing up as an outfit of a young girl who had made allegations of sexual [misconduct] against very powerful people in society — and that was what the captain, who leads the team, was wearing.”
She said after an initial meeting with the president and secretary — a few days after she first raised the issue — she did not hear back for a month and a half.
She initiated another meeting in mid-October when she informed the club of the blackface photo and was told nothing had happened regarding the first photo.
It was not until this month that she was informed they would take action and only after the media had contacted them.
