Black Maidens prepared for WAFU B tourney – Joe Nana Adarkwa
Black Maidens coach, Joe Nana Adakwa, says the team is ready for the upcoming WAFU Zone B U-17 Girls Cup.
The team has been in preparation for nearly two months, splitting their training sessions between Bibiani and Prampram.
The U-17 female side kicked off their campaign against Benin yesterday at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram.
The tournament will see Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Togo, Benin, and Nigeria vying for the inaugural title.
Ahead of the competition, Coach Adarkwa expressed confidence in his team’s readiness, stating that, “We have been in camp for about six weeks now, and so far, preparation has gone on well. We are ready for the tournament.”
Burkina Faso, initially drawn in the same group as Ghana and Benin, has withdrawn from the competition due to unforeseen circumstances.
Despite facing relatively unknown opponents, Coach Adarkwa is confident in his team’s ability to adapt.
“As of now I don’t know much about them (opponent) but we are coming to play the tournament. So as the tournament starts we will know how every team plays and we will be ready for any match.” –myjoyonline.com
