Training for southern sector football scouts ends today

 The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has commenced a five-day training programme for scouts from the five southern sector regions of Ghana, namely Greater Accra, Central, Western, Eastern, and Volta.

The programme, which kicked off on February 3, aims to equip scouts with basic scouting principles, profiles, and report writing skills, among other essential tools.

The training course is being held at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram.

A team of experienced in­structors, led by Prof. Joseph K. Mintah, Technical Direc­tor of the GFA, is facilitating the training programme.

Other instructors include Desmond Ofei, Director of Coaching Education, Joseph Tetteh-Zutah; Elite Academy Manager, Papa Nii Lartey; Head of Talent Identifi­cation and Development, Edward Acheampong, and Fataw Salifu, Scouts Man­ager.

The training programme, according to an FA state­ment, was designed to en­hance the skills and knowl­edge of scouts, enabling them to identify and develop young talents in their respec­tive regions.

“By investing in the devel­opment of scouts, the GFA aims to strengthen the foun­dation of Ghanaian football and uncover the next genera­tion of stars,” it said.

The programme will end today, and participants are expected to return to their regions equipped with the expertise and confidence to make a positive impact on the development of football in Ghana.
