Black Sharks begin camping in Keta in readiness for Beach Soccer AFCON Senegal 2026

The Ghana Beach Soccer National Team, the Black Sharks, will report to camp today in Keta to begin intensive preparations for the CAF Beach Soccer Africa Cup of Nations Senegal 2026.

The Keta camp marks the start of the final phase of Ghana's preparations for the continental showpiece, which will be played from November 28 to December 6, 2026, in Senegal.

Ghana have been drawn in a tough Group Aalongside hosts Senegal, Mozambique and Uganda, and the technical team is expected to use the camping period to build a strong, competitive squad capable of challenging for a place in the latter stages of the tournament.

The camp in Keta, one of the traditional homes of Beach Soccer in Ghana, will focus on tactical drills, set-piece routines, physical conditioning and team chemistry.

The coastal town provides the ideal environment for the team to acclimatise to the sand, the weather and the demands of the modern Beach Soccer game.

Ghana will be aiming to make a strong impression against the hosts Senegal, who are one of the powerhouses of African Beach Soccer, as well as Mozambique and Uganda, who have also made steady progress in the sport in recent years.

With qualification for the FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup also at stake, the stakes could not be higher for the Black Sharks, who are determined to fly the flag of Ghana high in Senegal.

The team is expected to continue camping in Keta for the next few weeks before departing for Senegal ahead of the tournament.
