Head Coach Mercy Tagoe has camped the Ladies in Cape Coast for the past three weeks where they have been engaging in a series of friendly games against some locals clubs.

The tournament is set to kick off from May 8, 2019 to May 18th 2919.

Ghana have been drawn in Group B alongside with Mali, Nigeria, and Guinea, whilst the host nation Cote d’Ivoire is scheduled to play in Group A, alongside Benin and Senegal.
