OVERVIEW
The Women's Premier League (WPL) is the top tier in the women's professional football league system in Ghana. It was first launched in 2012 and has seen 2 winners since its inception; Sekondi Hasaacas Ladies FC boast 3 titles (2012/13, 2013/14, 2014/15) and Ampem Darkoa Ladies FC have 2 titles to their name (2015/16, 2016/17).
The league consists of 16 teams split into two zones, the Northern Zone and Southern Zone, with 8 teams in each zone. The winners of each zone meet in a playoff to determine the league winner, while the bottom-placed team in each zone is relegated to the next tier.
For the first time in the league, the winner, runner-up, and third-place team will receive prize money. The winner will receive 50,000 Ghana Cedis (approximately $8,545) plus 40 gold medals, the runner-up will get 30,000 Ghana Cedis (approximately $5,127) plus 40 silver medals and the third-place team will go away with 15,000 Ghana Cedis ($2,563) plus 30 bronze medals. In addition, all 16 teams will receive shopping vouchers worth 2,000 Ghana Cedis (approximately $341 from Melcom Ghana, a partner of the Ghana Football Administration.
Note: The 2017/18 football season was truncated due to the aftereffects of a corruption scandal that rocked Ghana football. Following that, there was no footballing activity in the country (besides a few short competitions organised by the Normalisation Committee in 2018) until the start of the 2019/20 season, which was also cancelled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
