The Black Maidens have unveiled a 22‑player squad that will commence a training camp ahead of the WAFU B U‑17 Girls Cup. The group includes three goalkeepers, seven defenders, six midfielders and six forwards, all selected from clubs and academies across Ghana.
During the camping period, the players will work on team cohesion and compete for places in the final squad as the national side prepares for its regional assignment. The coaching staff aims to forge a strong campaign that will bring pride to Ghana at the tournament.
The WAFU B U‑17 Girls Cup will serve as a preparatory platform for the Black Maidens, who are also eyeing qualification for the 2026 U‑17 Women’s World Cup in Morocco. The regional tournament is scheduled to take place in Ouagadougou from September 15 to 28, 2026.
Coach and management officials have highlighted the importance of the camp in building chemistry among the players, many of whom have yet to play together at the international level. The selected squad will undergo intensive training sessions, friendly matches, and tactical drills designed to fine‑tune their performance for the upcoming competition.
As the camp progresses, the coaching team will evaluate each player’s form and fitness to finalize the roster that will represent Ghana on the continental stage. The Black Maidens’ journey from the camp to the World Cup will be closely followed by supporters and football analysts alike.
In the coming weeks, the team will continue to train in preparation for the WAFU B tournament, with hopes of securing a strong finish and laying the groundwork for future success on the global stage.
