The team under the guidance of local coach, Lamin Sarr had begun intensive preparatory programme at the Brikama Box Bar Mini Stadium four weeks ago with the home based players. The Baby Scorpions as they are affectionately called are also expected to be joined by the country's foreign based stars from the 15 to 20th February.
“We would be departing for Tunisia at the weekend to Tunisia in the build up to the AYC Championship. The team is in the final phase of the camping and would be ready for their opponents at the championship in Libya,” Sarr told 247naijasport.
It would be recalled that the Baby Scorpions are pooled alongside defending and world champions, Ghana, Cameroun and five time winners of the competition, Nigeria in group B.
