He acknowledged the challenges that come with staging a tournament of such magnitude but assured tennis players, officials and supporters of their desire to deliver an unforgettable experience. He also added that the McDan Group will continue its supports for tennis.<\/p>\n
\u201cOrganizing an ITF tournament has been a challenge for the Tennis Federation but through the McDan Foundation we have been able to secure sanction from ITF and we believe in no time we will produce stars from Ghana.<\/p>\n
\u201cI sit here today instead of CEO Dr. Daniel McKorley as the Foundation head, to let you know that the Foundation will continue to sponsor more ITF tourney next year.\u201d<\/p>\n
The President of the Ghana Tennis Federation Isaac Aboagye Duah applauded the McDan Group of Companies for their role in the growth of the sport.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe joined McDan five years ago and we realized it was a good platform for us to project our products. Associating ourselves with the McDan tennis tourney has projected our products in Ghana and beyond.<\/p>\n
The tourney has received supports from Twellium Industries, Palace Decor, Interplast Company Limited, Hollard Insurance and FOX Cooling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
