The CAF Women's Africa Cup of Nations (AWCON) is set to kick off over the weekend in Morocco, the first since 2018 due to COVID-19.
Two cities - Casablanca and Rabat – will host this year's edition - commencing from July 2 to July 23.
For Ghana, the Black Queens failed to secure qualification to the continental showpiece, which also serves as the qualifiers for the 2023 Women's World Cup.
However, one man who will look to make Ghana proud is Benjamin Willie Graham, who has been chosen as one of just two commentators for the three weeks of women's football.
"It's a great honour to be called upon again by CAF to work on the Women's AFCON. I did that back in 2018 when Ghana hosted it," he told Joy Sports.

"Again this tournament is practically different from the rest because CAF is expanding their plans in such tournaments to include; former stars of the game to work as pundits and colour commentators with the likes of former Indomitable Lionesses' captain Christine Manie, former South Africa captain, Amanda Dlamini, former Super Falcons goalkeeper, Rachael Ayegba, and former Tunisia player Haifa Guedri.
"Also CAF wants more accessibility during its events so CAF-TV will play a huge role to ensure the game is brought to many viewers around the continent and being part of it is great for me."
The tournament's opening game will be between Morocco and Burkina Faso on Saturday, July 2.
