Sports News of Monday, 20 January 2020Source: Graphic.com.ghGFA must resource Division Two & Three clubs - Owerriman CEOKwabena Owusu DankwaThe Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Division Two side Owerriman Football Club, Kwabena Owusu Dankwa, has appealed to the Ghana Football Association (GFA) to pay attention to the foundation of Ghana football by extending financial assistance to Division Two and Division Three clubs to help in the development of football at the grassroots. While commending the FA for providing some support to Premier League, Division One League and Women’s Premier League sides, Mr Dankwa said the FA was yet to offer any of such assistance to the third and fourth-tier divisions as they prepared to start their leagues. “The new FA should be commended for offering some support packages to Premier League clubs, as well as Division One League and Women’s League clubs but no such assistance has been announced for Division Two and Division Three clubs. He explained that apart from the colts clubs, which are developmental oriented, it is the Division Two and Division Three clubs that professionally develop the potential of footballers to make them build their careers, hence the need to support them. "It is for this reason that I am appealing to the FA to pay particular attention to Division Two and Division Three clubs by offering us incentives to help us groom future national stars,” Mr Dankwa emphasised.
