Ghana's Black Starlets have traversed a grueling 20-hour road journey to Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, in preparation for the WAFU Zone B U17 Championship. The team's departure from Accra to Bolgatanga, where they engaged in four days of training at the Winkogo Technical Centre, culminated in a bus trip to the capital city on Tuesday.
This lengthy voyage follows the Starlets' recent return from Morocco, where they contested two friendly matches, securing a 2-0 win over the hosts. Ghana and Morocco are set to face off again in the final match of the friendly series. The team has been placed in Group B alongside Togo, Benin, and Burkina Faso, with the top two teams advancing to the 2027 U17 Africa Cup of Nations.
While the extensive journey has prompted concerns about the logistics and well-being of the young athletes, especially in light of security issues in the Sahel region, there is no evidence the Black Starlets experienced any security incidents during their voyage. Consequently, specifics regarding the delegation's security protocols remain undisclosed.
