Ghana’s Black Satellites head coach Desmond Ofei says the team is progressing steadily with their preparations as they gear towards kick-starting the African games tournament in March.

The team pitched a three weeks camp at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram where the large majority of training coupled with other technical instructions have been imparted before they headed to Cape Coast for their final preparations.

The coach believes there is much at stake for the Black Satellites going into the tournament. However, he assures the boys can make Ghana proud if they stay focused.

"We’re in the final stages of preparation, everything is going smoothly," said Ofei.

"Working in football is a lot of challenge but we must stay focused, because, we know what is at stake, this African game means a lot to us."

The Black Satellites are drawn in group A alongside Benin, Congo and The Gambia for the 13th African Games Male Football competition. Ghana's first game is on March 9 at the Accra Sports Stadium.
