The Stephen Appiah Foundation (SAF), in partnership with Alive & Kicking Ghana (A&K Ghana), has developed a new ball named after the former Black Stars Captain, Stephen Appiah.

The ‘Tornado’ ball will be officially launched on Monday December 15, by the Minister of Youth and Sports, Mahama Ayariga at the British High Commissioner’s Residence.

The Tornado ball is locally manufactured by Alive & Kicking Ghana, a charity organisation that produces and sell over 1,300 sports balls monthly.

A percentage of the revenue is expected to go directly to support the work of the Stephen Appiah Foundation in the areas of health and education through sports.

SAF was set up to provide care, quality education, health facilities and opportunities through sports to improve the overall wellness for underprivileged children in Ghana, helping them attain their full potentials.

Alive & Kicking (A&K) is an African charity that manufactures sports balls (footballs, netballs, volleyballs and rugby balls) in Kenya, Zambia and Ghana.
