Ghana’s junior national women’s teams, the Black Princesses and the Black Maidens have been given the green light by government to begin preparations ahead of their respective qualifying events later this year.

President Akufo-Addo in his address to the nation on Sunday night on measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus, eased restrictions on football activities for the first time since March, allowing the two national teams to begin training by adhering to the safety protocols.

“Our female Under-20 and Under-17 national football teams have been given the clearance to go into their respective training camps to begin preparations towards their FIFA and CAF-sanctioned international matches, which begin in September”.

“Whilst in training, the playing, technical and management teams must observe strictly all the protocols issued by Government, CAF and FIFA against COVID-19.

All other team and contact sports, and competitive sporting events remain suspended till further notice”, the president said in his statement.

After successfully dispatching Liberia 10-0 over two legs, the Nuru Mallam’s Black Maidens will engage Nigeria in the last round qualifying match on 30th October, 2020 in the first leg, with the return leg slated for 20th November, 2020.
