Ampem Darkoa Ladies, the Ghana Women’s Premier League and FA Cup champions have begun preparations for this year’s CAF Women’s Champions League WAFU B Qualifiers, and lessons learned from the team’s maiden but brief run in the competition will help the team’s preparations, according to head coach Joe Nana Adarkwa.
The squad was placed in Group B against AS Garde Nationale of Niger and Amis du Monde of Togo.
After missing out on a spot in the main draw last season, Ampem Darkoa Ladies will be trying to make amends this season.
Joe Nana Adarkwa, head coach of Ampem Darkoa, spoke to Citi Sports on the team’s preparations for the qualifiers.
“I know all the teams because of last year’s tournament apart from the new team coming from Nigeria I know all of them. We have learnt a lot from what happened last year.”
“We are at Techiman and we are preparing very well towards the tournament. In about a week’s time, we will move to Prampram and continue our training. So we are doing everything so that when we get there everything will go well” he said in addition.
The CAF women’s champion’s league group games will begin in Uganda in early August.
