The Ghana U-20 women’s national team is embarking on a one-week tour in Clairefontaine as part of an agreed partnership between the French Football Federation (FFF) and the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
This initiative, named “Olympiqc-Ghana Go!”, is designed to professionalize women’s football for over 20 Ghanaian players, coaches, and referees. The tour to France’s National Football Center will provide the Black Princesses with exposure to modern facilities to prepare them for upcoming competitions.
Vice President of the Ghana Football Association, Mark Addo, expressed that this program is aligned with the GFA’s Women’s football strategy, aiming to elevate women’s football in Ghana.
He emphasized that the initiative goes beyond participation but also promotes excellence at the global stage, extending the cultural and economic relationship that Ghana and France have enjoyed over the years.
The French Embassy and the French Football Federation have worked together to make this partnership a reality, which received praise from Addo.
French Ambassador to Ghana, His Excellency Jules-Armand Aniambossouu, hosted a reception where the partnership was announced. The Black Princesses will also take part in the 13th edition of the Africa Games upon their return to Ghana.
