On her part, Felicite Nson, who is the Managing Director of Guinness Ghana Limited, added that the company is looking forward to yet another thrilling season after success during the 2022/23 campaign.

‘’This really shows how Women’s football is taking its much-deserved place in the hearts and minds of the people. I am thrilled to share why the upcoming second season of this partnership is poised to be even better than the first.
‘“Malta Guinness has always been deeply committed to creating a 'Can-Do' World. We are happy that through this partnership with the GFA, we are able to throw more light on Women’s football in the country, demystify the misconceptions, give Women footballers equal opportunities and also promote sports development across the country.
“I must acknowledge that we have made some significant progress and through your continued and unwavering support, we will make giant strides and raise the flag of Ghana even higher,” Nson added.
