31 players to resume Black Starlets camping on Monday

The Black Starlets will resume camping at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram on Monday, July 28, following a two-week break after the WAFU B U-20 Boys Cup.

The team will remain in camp until September, preparing for the WAFU B U-17 Cup of Nations. The selected players have undergone rigorous scouting, MRI scanning, and medical clearance.

Most players were selected from Division Two clubs nationwide, with Benab FC and Nsawam United each having three players on the list.

Only Narbi Joseph and Issah Abdul Rafiu are the remaining members of the Laryea Kingston team that hosted the last WAFU B tournament in Accra.

The Black Starlets aims to qualify for the U-17 Africa Cup of Nations and ultimately the FIFA U-17 World Cup. During their preparation, the Black Starlets will play a series of friendly matches to fine-tune their skills.

Coach Frimpong Manso and his team aim to identify talented young players to form the next Black Starlets squad, with ambitions to excel in the 2025/26 WAFU B U-17 Cup of Nations and the U-17 Africa Cup of Nations.

The coach is expected to reduce the squad size during the camping before finalizing his selection for the WAFU B U-17 Cup of Nations.

Ghana has missed three consecutive editions of the U-17 AFCON, and Coach Frimpong Manso is determined to change this trend.
