There was no Ghanaian female referee selected to officiate in the impending 10th Women's Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.

Ghanaian female referees have struggled for international recognition in the post Mercy Tagoe-Quarcoo era.

The likes of Christine Enyonam Zigah and assistants Emmanuella Aglago and Beatrice Thaud have been overlooked.

Eleven (11) referees and 14 assistant referees have been named for the Championship expected to take place in Cameroon.

The tournament will be held from 19 November to 3 December 2016 in the Cameroonian cities of Yaoundé and Limbe.

Host Cameroon, Egypt, South Africa and Zimbabwe make up Group A whilst holders Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Mali are in Group B.
