Coleman said the Fund will bring long-needed structure and predictability to sports financing in Ghana, stressing that it will serve as a central platform for sports promotions, activities and sponsorships. “The Sports Development Fund will unify funding efforts across the sector and eliminate the uncertainties that have plagued sports development for years,” he stated. The Sports Development Fund Bill, moved by the Minister for Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, was passed by Parliament on Thursday, December 18, 2025, after extensive deliberations involving both the Majority and Minority caucuses. Under the new law, a multi-source, performance-driven Sports Development Fund will be established to support athlete welfare, infrastructure development, grassroots sports and nationwide talent identification. With the Bill now passed, stakeholders across the sports sector are optimistic that the swift operationalisation of the Sports Development Fund will usher in a new era of structured, transparent and sustainable sports development in Ghana.
