Three players each from Nigeria, Ivory Coast and Congo have failed
MRI tests conducted by Caf on Friday. This was a mandatory requirement
before the kickoff of the U-17 African Cup in Morocco.
With the competition starting on Saturday, Ghana's U-17 men's team
remains intact as the test passed the all members of the Black Starlets
squad.
This makes them eligible to play at the competition.
All the players who failed the test have been disqualified and will not take part in the competition.
Caf, on the eve of the start of the 2013 African Junior
Championships in Morocco conducted test on all players to verify that
they fall within the under 17 years age bracket.
The medical team conducted the test which saw the bone density of
wrists of the players scanned to ensure an accuracy of at least within
one percent under the age 18. |
