Five-year development plan moves to the Ashanti Region.

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) would on Tuesday, November 26, launch its Five-Year Youth development plan for the Ashanti Region.

According to Mr. Julius Onyameama, Deputy General Secretary of the GFA in charge of administration, the ceremony would take place at the Kumasi Sports Stadium where courses in football coaching, administration and refereeing would be conducted for interested individuals.

Mr. Onyameama said structures would also be laid for the formation of Under-12, 15, 17 and 20, adding that as many people as possible from the region are expected to register to take part in the programmes.

He said participation in the programmes would depend on the participant's ability to write, read and digest in order to smoothen their participation in the various courses.

The General Secretary urged all parent and teachers to encourage their wards and students to participate in order to lay sound junior structures.
