The Black Starlets of Ghana have touched down safely in Côte d’Ivoire ahead of the 2025 WAFU Zone B U-17 Championship which commences this weekend.
The two-time world champions have been in camp for over a month and engaged in some intensive training sessions at the Ghanaman Soccer Center of Excellence in Prampram.
Coach Prosper Narteh Ogum and his lads tested their strength with series of high profile friendly matches against clubs like Golden Kick, Attram de Visser, Port City FC and others
The Black Starlets however wrapped up their preparations with a narrow defeat to Auroras last Friday but was definitely an entertaining game to identify some loopholes to work on before the main competition.
