Ghana's young talents have officially landed in the action. The National U-15 Boys team held their first training session in Baku, Azerbaijan on Friday, kicking off the final push toward the FIFA U-15 World Cup and Festival.
The squad took to the tournament training facility for an intensive workout led by the technical team. The session mixed drills, ball work and tactical exercises, with the focus on polishing both technical quality and team shape before the competition gets underway this weekend.
Ghana have been drawn in Group W, a six-team pool that also features Uzbekistan, Myanmar, Guam, Bahamas and Kazakhstan. The campaign starts against Uzbekistan on Saturday, October 24.
