Two Ghanaian referees have been selected to officiate at the 2014
African Women’s Championship (AWC) scheduled for Namibia from October
11-25.
The duo, Christine Ziga Enyoman and Emmanuella Aglagoh will be the
only Ghanaian representation at the tournament the Black Queens make a
return to following a sit out at the last edition since its inception.
Information gathered by GNA Sports indicates that the two referees
made it into the list of 26 selected officials based on their
performance in recent times.
Ziga, 32, a centre referee will be making a third appearance at a
major continental championship since receiving her international badge
in 2010.
For 34-year-old assistant referee Aglagoh, the tourney will be her
fourth major international competition after the recent FIFA U-17
Women’s World Cup in Azerbaijan and her role at the All African Games
in Maputo, Mozambique in 2011 where she officiated alongside Ziga.
Aglagoh was on duty at the final of the 2014 Youth Olympics in
Nianjing, China a fortnight ago.
Ghanaian referees have performed creditably at the flagship
continental women’s football championship, with retired Mercy Quarcoo
Tagoe going all the way to officiate the final match of the 2008
edition also staged in Equatorial Guinea.
