Covid-19:Seven cases recorded at Black Maidens and Princesses camp
Domesticsportsgh.com have gathered a reports that, Seven players from Ghana’s female junior national teams have tested positive for the deadly coronavirus disease just days after camping started, throwing their preparation into total disarray.
Players of the women’s national U17 and U20 team, the Black Maidens and Black Princesses respectively, were revealed to have contracted the disease after general tests were carried out on the squad of the two teams.
According to reports in the local media, the tests by medical officials showed that the seven players from the two teams had contracted the virus which is highly contagious per the report.
The GFA will now work with the Ghana Health Service officials to make a final determination on whether the camp should be completely called off following the revelation.
This is also likely to further delay the start of football in the country as this could be seen as an example of how the disease could spread if football in the local leagues is made to start.
The tests were carried out when the training camp of the players opened in Cape Coast late last week as the two teams had gathered to start their preparations for upcoming continental qualifiers.
