Ghana’s senior women’s national team, the Black Queens, have made a notable leap in the latest FIFA Women’s World Rankings, rising to 59th place from their previous 62nd position.
The upward movement reflects a string of encouraging performances in recent outings, underlining the team’s steady progress and growing confidence on the international stage.
It also signals renewed momentum within the squad as efforts to rebuild and strengthen the team begin to yield results.
On the continental front, the Black Queens continue to underline their pedigree, holding firm as one of Africa’s top sides, ranked third in the Confederation of African Football (CAF) standings.
The position keeps Ghana among the elite in women’s football across the continent.
The latest improvement is expected to serve as a timely boost for the team ahead of the upcoming Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON), a tournament that also doubles as a qualification pathway for the next FIFA Women’s World Cup.
