Ghana will mark its return to the Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) with a game against South Africa in their tournament opener on July 7, 2025.

The Black Queens will come up against the defending champions in their first Group C game, looking to enjoy a good start to the competition.

Kim Lars Bjorkegren's side is in the same group as South Africa and are also joined by Mali and Tanzania.

After the opening fixture against South Africa, Ghana will take on Mali in their next game on July 11.

The Black Queens will then wrap up their group stage campaign with the game against Tanzania on July 14.

The Queens have finished as runners-up on three occasions since the inception of the tournament, but have never won it.

They are also making their first appearance at the competition since hosting it in 2018, with the objective of going past the group stage.
