The Black Princesses commenced their training in Paris on Monday, February 12, following their arrival in France on Sunday for a week-long training tour as part of their preparations for the 13th edition of the African Games scheduled for Accra in 2024.

Under the guidance of head coach Yussif Basigi, the Princesses held their first session at the National Football Centre in Clairefontaine, receiving assistance from coaches affiliated with the France Football Federation.

As part of their intensive preparation, the team is set to engage in several high-profile friendly matches during their stay in Paris, providing valuable exposure and experience before their return to Ghana for the African Games in March.

This training initiative is a key component of the collaborative “Ghana Olympique-GO!” project, a partnership between the France Football Federation (FFF) and the Ghana Football Association (GFA). Facilitated by the France Embassy in Accra, this strategic collaboration aims to professionalize women’s football by benefiting over 20 Ghanaian players, coaches, and referees.
