Accra, the vibrant capital of Ghana, has been designated as the host city for the upcoming 2024 U-17 Boys Cup of Nations in May, as announced by WAFU Zone B.

The tournament will showcase the talents of seven formidable teams including host nation Ghana, reigning champions Nigeria, as well as Cote D’Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Togo, Benin, and Niger.

Notably, the WAFU Zone B Championship will serve a dual purpose as it will also serve as the qualifying platform for the prestigious TotalEnergies U17 Africa Cup of Nations.

With aspirations for redemption following their premature exit in the previous edition held in Cape Coast, the Black Starlets are gearing up for the challenge under the guidance of Coach Laryea Kingston. Their sights are set on securing a coveted spot in the 2024 U17 Africa Cup of Nations.

Preparations are already underway, with the tournament slated to unfold from May 15th to May 29th, 2024, promising an exciting showcase of emerging talent on the football stage in the heart of Accra.
