Ghana sits behind Nigeria, Morocco, and South Africa, who had an impressive opening at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.

Despite ranking 4th on the African list, the Black Queens have fallen by two places on the world ranking, currently sitting 61st.

Ghana began the year in 3rd place in the Africa rankings and 59th in the World, hence, the latest ranking depicts the Black Queens ending the year fallen one place and two places respectively.

Under head coach Nora Hauptle, the Black Queens have enjoyed the best year of any Ghanaian national team in 2023.
