The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has unveiled a groundbreaking initiative in collaboration with Osei Kyeretwie Senior High School (OKESS) in the Ashanti Region: the Elite Soccer Academy.
Spearheaded by Vice President Mark Addo, the GFA delegation kickstarted the partnership during a visit to OKESS, marking the inception of an exciting venture.
The primary goal of this collaboration is to leverage OKESS's modern sporting facilities to nurture the next generation of football talents through the Elite Soccer Academy. OKESS's selection as the partner institution stems from its status as a mixed school, ensuring equal opportunities for both boys and girls to thrive in football. This aligns closely with the GFA's commitment to promoting gender equality and fostering talent development across all segments of society.
Key figures from the GFA, including Technical Director Prof. Joseph Kwame Mintah and Director of Elite Academy Joseph Tetteh Zutah, expressed unwavering dedication to the initiative during the visit.
Representatives from OKESS, including the Headmaster and Physical Education Coordinator, warmly embraced the partnership, emphasizing their enthusiasm for the collaboration.
Vice President Mark Addo voiced optimism about the collaboration, highlighting its significance in propelling the development of football talent in Ghana.
The establishment of the Elite Soccer Academy at OKESS heralds a transformative era for football development in the Ashanti Region and beyond, promising to shape the future of Ghanaian football.
