Ghana's Under-17 team will host neighbours Burkina Faso in the first leg of the second round qualifier for the 2017 Africa U17 Championship next month.

The Black Starlets play as host of the Burkinabe on August 7 at the Cape Coast stadium.

Coach Paa Kwesi Fabian has been trimming the rough edges of his team ahead of the qualifier next month.

The Ghanaian will be involved in the qualifiers for the first time after Liberia withdrew from the race.

Ghana are hoping to return to the continent's flagship juvenile championship after serving a year's ban from the competition for fielding an over aged player.

The return leg is fixed for Ouagadougou.
