Black Queens head coach Nora Hauptle says she always believed she had the resilience to survive a testing job as the head trainer of Ghana\u2019s National Women\u2019s Football Team.<\/p>\n

She revealed this in an interview with the BBC as she prepares to lead the Black Queens to the 2024 Women\u2019s AFCON later this year in Morocco.<\/p>\n

Hauptle joined a Black Queens team that had failed to qualify to the 2022 Women\u2019s AFCON and the 2023 FIFA Women\u2019s World Cup.<\/p>\n

However, under tutelage, the Queens rattled off 10 straight win en route to sealing a spot in Morocco with a 3-2 aggregate win over Namibia.<\/p>\n

Despite the daunting challenges that awaited her, the Swede says she was confident of passing the test.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI knew when I jumped in there that I would have the resilience to survive [and] I would learn a lot about myself. For me, the interest behind it maybe sounds ridiculous for others but I learned the most in this whole journey about myself.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Hauptle was on the verge of achieving another major mark by getting the Black Queens a qualifier away from making it to the Olympic Games for the first time.<\/p>\n
