Management member of Okwawu United Charles Boahen has attributed his side’s current razor-sharp form to proper administrative work.

Boahen mentioned that the Soccer Mountaineers are close to a premiership return, having gained a ticket to play in the National Middle League.

The former premiership side have wallowed in the lower league for seven years. The last time they came close to returning to the elite league, they incurred the wrath of the country’s football governing body, GFA, after conceding over 30 goals against Nania FC in Takoradi.

Boahen explained on ‘Stage Africa’ a GTV sports show hosted by Jerry Kwame Ayensu four days ago that the club’s management identified its problems and drew a strategy to arrest its problem.

He revealed that the ‘sole proprietorship style’ of administration had a telling effect on the team’s performance, and so they decided to form a board to ensure the day to day running of the club.

“Running of the club in the past few years used to be a one-man show business and that didn’t work, so we decided to form a board and things have turned around since.

“We have been in the Middle League three times, we have enough experience now to rejoin the premier league. We have been in Division One for seven years and have vowed not to return after gaining promotion from the forthcoming Middle League,” Boahen said.

He noted that the countless disciplinary issues that bedeviled their operations last season have stirred management to educate their large following.

Okwawu have qualified for this year’s Middle League, sitting on top of the Zone 3B table after amassing 25 points followed by Danbort FC.
