Accra, Aug. 14,
GNA – Yaw Preko, Head Coach of the National U20 male team, has assured
Ghanaians that his side will make Ghana proud by winning gold at the upcoming
Africa Games in Rabat Morocco.
Coach Preko
made this known in Accra, when Professor Peter Twumasi, Director General for
the National Sports Authority (NSA) and Chairman for the International Games
and Competitions Committee (IGCC) visited the team before they departed from
Ghana on Wednesday 14th August, 2019.
According to
Coach Preko, though the team would have wished to have more camping ahead of
the 12th edition of Africa Games, they had had good preparations that would help
them to win gold.
“So much has
gone into preparations ahead of this tournament but we are very determined and
confident of winning gold and making Ghana proud.
“The Government
through the Youth and Sports Ministry and the IGCC have done their part by
getting us the needed support so far, and now it is our turn to reward them by
raising the flag of Ghana high and making ourselves proud”.
Professor
Twumasi used the occasion to express gratitude to the technical handlers of the
team for the massive work done despite the short time of camping and wished
them well ahead of their departure.
