The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has handed over buses to nine Division One League clubs to support their operations and improve football development across the country.
The presentation, attended by GFA Executive Council members, delivered on a pledge made by President Kurt Okraku during the 29th Ordinary Congress in Kumasi last year.
The buses were awarded to the top three teams from each Division One League zone after the 2023/24 season.
The initiative is part of the GFA’s capacity-building strategy to ease transportation challenges and encourage better performance.
The recipients include:
Zone 1: Young Apostles FC (1st place, now in the Premier League), Techiman Heroes FC (2nd place), and Victory Club Warriors (3rd place).
Zone 2: Basake Holy Stars (1st place, now in the Premier League), New Edubiase FC (2nd place), and Mysterious Ebusua Dwarfs (3rd place).
Zone 3: Vision FC (1st place, now in the Premier League), Okwawu United (2nd place), and Hohoe United (3rd place).
“This initiative is part of our broader strategy to empower clubs and ensure sustainable development of the game,” Okraku said.
The move has been widely praised by stakeholders as a step toward addressing logistical challenges in the Division One League.
