Ghana’s senior female team, the Black Queens, is camping ahead of the 2018 Africa Women’s Championships in Ghana at Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram and 33 players have been invited to the camp.
This was contained in a statement from the CAF/FIFA Liaison team set up to run Ghana football in place of the Ghana FA which is under a court injunction as part of fallout from the Anas Aremeyaw Anas exposé on corruption in Ghana football.
According to the players in an interview with Mynewsghana.com they have not been taken care which makes camping difficult for them. “We have been here getting to a month now and all we eat is Gari, you know we are ladies and we can’t even afford sanitary pad, we don’t even know if the Black Queen is still part of Ghana national teams, we are not happy and Africa Women’s Championships is just around the corner, how do you expert us to perform well, we need help”, they told Mynewsghana.com correspondent.
The 33 players who have been invited include goalkeeper Patricia Mantey of Immigration Ladies, Rita Okyere of Prisons Ladies and Jane Ayieyam of Police Ladies.
6 foreign-based players have also been called up. They include Portia Boakye of Djugardens of Sweden, Elizabeth Addo of Reign Fc in the United States, Faustina Ampah of FC Minsk of Belarus and Priscilla Okyere of ZKF Spartak Subotica of Serbia.
