In line with these efforts, the club has also partnered with Kumasi Sports Academy Ladies FC to form a female team.  <\/p>\n<p>This move aligns with the Ghana Football Association\u2019s club licensing requirements, highlighting Kotoko\u2019s holistic approach to football development.  <\/p>\n<p>FKA\/BB<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wilson Asare, Youth Coach of Asante Kotoko Wilson Asare, the youth coach for Asante Kotoko, has lauded the unwavering support of Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, the club\u2019s owner and life patron.
