The 2022 season of the Major League of the National Student Organization of American Football (ONEFA) will begin on September 9, so the teams of the various institutions of higher and secondary education in Mexico have already begun to confirm the members. of their teams.
For this reason, through a series of photographs on June 30 through Twitter, the UNAM Pumas CU FBA men’s football team announced the members who will be part of the team this 2022 season, which, apparently , will be historic, since Andrea Martínez, the first woman to play in the ONEFA Major League, was included in the squad.
At only 23 years old, Andrea Martínez is the student from the UNAM Law School who joins the American football team, where, according to what the team shared, she will play her role as kicker for the club, along with her teammates Sergio Robles and Juan Pablo Guerrero.
Despite the great news of being the first girl to join the staff of the ONEFA 2022 season, previously, Andrea was part of the soccer team soccer representative of UNAM, so the position as a kicker suits her perfectly.

As is customary in the team, the “hazing” was carried out, an act that arises after the arrival of a new member. In it, the players dress or paint themselves as characters from series or cartoons, so Andrea Martínez decided to dress as Captain America.
