Ghana's women's soccer team trains hard for the big tournament coming next month. The Black Queens play three practice games against different countries before the real competition starts. They face Malawi this Saturday and Botswana next Wednesday in Morocco where the championship happens.

The team plays Nigeria on June 29 for their final warm-up match. Nigeria and Botswana already qualified for the tournament and compete in Group B with Tunisia and Algeria. Coach Kim Lars Bjorkegren brought his players to Morocco early to prepare properly.

The Black Queens played Ivory Coast and Senegal before traveling to Morocco. Ghana missed the last tournament but returns after six years away from the competition. The team wants to show they belong with Africa's best women's soccer squads.

Ghana competes in Group C against South Africa, Mali, and Tanzania during the tournament. The championship runs from July 5 through July 26 across Morocco. Players hope their practice games help them perform well when the real tournament begins.
