Hasaacas Ladies

Coach Yusif Basigi and two Hasaacas Ladies players have made the shortlist for the CAF Awards 2022 top prize ahead of next week’s much-awaited gala night in Rabat, Morocco.

The awards will be held on Thursday, 21 July 2022.

The list released by CAF comprises of 10 nominees for both Women’s Player of the Year and Women’s Interclub Player of the Year.

The Women’s Young Player of the Year and Women’s Club of the Year has five nominees apiece.

Meanwhile, 10 nominees have been selected for the Coach of the Year category after taking into consideration the group phase matches at the ongoing TotalEnergies Women’s Africa Cup of Nations Morocco 2022.

The winners of each category will be decided by a voting panel made up of CAF Technical Committee, media representatives, head coaches and captains of Member Associations and clubs involved at the group stage of the Interclub competitions for the 2021/22 season.

On the National Team of the Year, CAF explained that ”due to the absence of a major women’s competition during the period under review, the Organizing Team for the CAF Awards 2022 has reviewed the selection process for this important category.

The TotalEnergies Women’s Africa Cup of Nations Morocco will be factored as one of the criterion in deciding a winner befitting of the status of the award and women’s football in general. The winner will be announced on 23 July 2022 during the final match of the Women’s AFCON”.

Hasaacas Ladies duo of Evelyn Badu and Doris Boaduwaa following their remarkable exploits last year have been nominated for Player of the Year (Women) and Interclub Player of the Year (Women) awards.

The two Alvaldsnes signees have also been shortlisted in the Young Player of the Year (Women) category.

The gaffer Yusif Basigi after securing the treble and finishing second in the maiden TotalEnergies CAF Women’s Champions League received nomination as Women’s Coach of the Year.

Sekondi Hasaacas Ladies are also vying for the Club of the Year (Women) with four others.
