13th African Games: Ghana Women’s table tennis team eliminated

By Wilhelmina Oddoye

The Ghanaian women’s table tennis team has been eliminated from the table tennis women’s team event of the 2024  African Games.

The Black Loopers fell short following a 2-3 defeat against South Africa in the quarter-final stage at the Accra International Conference Centre on Thursday, March 7, 2024.

The Ghanaian female trio comprising Baah-Danso, Cynthia Kwabi and Juanita Borteye battled against South Africa’s Musfiquh Kalam, Danisha Patel and Laila Edwards.

The team had the opportunity to advance to the last four when 13-year-old star Juanita Borteye won her first game of the day.

Despite Juanita Borteye securing a convincing 3-0 victory in her match, it was team captain Celia Baah-Danso’s narrow 2-3 defeat in the final match that decided Ghana’s fate.

A win from Celia may have given the Black Loopers a spot in the final four.
