Mrs Arthur set to lead Skyy FC as head coach
Madam Amofa holds a CAF License B coaching certificate, which satisfies the minimum qualification standard set out under UMB Division One League regulations, as stated by the Ghana Football Association.
The rules require all coaches participating in the competition to hold at least a CAF License B, and Mrs Arthur meets that threshold.
Her appointment makes her one of the few women to take charge of a men's club at this level of Ghanaian football.
When is Mrs Arthur's first game?
Coach Arthur will not be eased gently into her new role.
Her first assignment as head coach is a fixture against Cape Coast Mysterious Dwarfs, former Ghana Premier League campaigners, scheduled for Sunday, 20 September.
The match represents an early measure of where Skyy FC stand ahead of what the club hopes will be a promotion-winning campaign.
Skyy FC have come close to securing top-flight football on several occasions in recent years.
Most notably, they missed out on promotion three seasons ago, finishing in fourth. position.
Under Madam Amofa, the club will be aiming to go one better and finally break into the Ghana Premier League.
She would follow in the footsteps of former Black Queens gaffer Mercy Tagoe-Quarcoo, who famously coached Amidaus Professionals in the Ghana Premier League in 2012.
