Western Regional Minister Dr Kobby Okyere Mensah-Darkoh has cheered Women’s Premier League Winners, Haasacas Ladies, to win the WAFU Zone B tournament, which starts this weekend, July 24.

The Member of Parliament paid a visit to them on Wednesday to boost their morale with encouraging words as the club ramps up preparation for the competition in Africa.

Hasaacas Ladies are currently in Sekondi-Takoradi to train at the Sekondi Methodist Park Astroturf before jetting off to Cote D'Ivoire for the WAFU Zone B tournament which starts on Saturday.

“I came to encourage you that where you’ve gotten to, there is no way I believe anybody can challenge you. But, more so, when I look at your faces, your ages tells of your youthfulness and your ability to excel in your careers if you play your hearts out,” the Minister told the playing body of Hasaacas Ladies.

Dr Mensah-Darkoh also tasked the team to perform wholeheartedly and emerge eventual winners of the impending tournament.

“As far as we are a concern, all we need from you is just go out there and win so we at Western Region, especially Sekondi-Takoradi will be happy. So I encourage you to go and win for Ghana, Western Region and Sekondi-Takoradi so that it will attract interested persons into the club,” He added.

Hasaacas Ladies will come up against Nigeria’s River Angels FC and AS Police de Niamey from Niger in Group B
