The KNUST event falls within the School&#8217;s Sports Week Celebration and in collaboration with the Sports Directorate.<\/p>\n<p>The winners in both categories will receive attractive prizes from sponsors.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the competition, the Federation will organize a basic and introductory course in Armwrestling for would-be coaches in the Ashanti Region.<\/p>\n<p>Armwrestling is a traditional and easy to play fastest growing sport in Ghana. It is played by two on a flat surface with both players gripping each other&#8217;s arm with the aim of pinning the other\u2019s back arm to the table.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: -1 updated by: 45 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sports News of Tuesday, 26 September 2017 Source: ghananewsagency.com 2017-09-26 Ghana Armwrestling Federation Campus competition &#13; The Ghana Armwrestling Federation\u2019s (GAF) Campus competition at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) received a boost following a partnership agreement with Vodafone Cash and Rush Energy Drink.
