Police Ladies and Army Ladies will battle for the maiden Women Democracy Cup on Friday, July 31, at the McDan Park in La, Accra, as part of the Democracy Cup Project initiated by the Parliament of Ghana under the leadership of Rt. Hon. Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin.
The match, which will feature two of Ghana's top women's clubs, forms part of a broader initiative to recognise the role of women in Ghana's democracy. Parliament Ladies and Judicial Service Ladies will engage in a curtain-raiser before the main fixture.
The event will be hosted by the Rt. Hon. Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Bagbin, with Vice President, Her Excellency Naana Jane Opoku Agyemang, as the Special Guest of Honour.
Other dignitaries expected to grace the occasion include Women Leadership in Parliament, Chairpersons of the National Commission on Civic Education, the Electoral Commission of Ghana, and women from the Diplomatic Corps.
Under the Democracy Cup Project, three major competitions will be organised: the Democracy Youth Cup, the Women Democracy Cup, and the flagship event, the Democracy Cup, between Accra Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko at the Baba Yara Stadium on August 23.
The Women Democracy Cup will be an annual event under the project and seeks to offer a big platform for women's clubs to showcase their competitiveness while contributing to their development and growth.
