The CEO of Keta sunset beach soccer club Mr Reuben Dzidodo Adzaho hinted that beach soccer is not dead in Ghana as many claims.
The CEO of Keta sunset sports Mr Reuben Dzidodo Adzaho has revealed in an exclusive interview with Fafaa Fm's Wisdom Dovlo on Thursday, October 25, 2018, that beach soccer is not dead in the country instead they are working hard to revive it.
Generally, football has suffered in Ghana and beach soccer is directly under CAF and FIFA so if there is anything relating to beach soccer then we should be talking about football in general.
In their perspective, GBSA has been working so hard recently and he understands that there will be super cup which is already known to the public and also there are ongoing events around beach soccer in the country.
He further said that he might not say beach soccer is bead just because beach soccer had some setbacks especially about sponsorship, support, Administration and also the management of the sports which the country has suffered from in that angle so he thinks that we need to look at these things and makes the necessary corrections.
"We want to make Keta beach soccer a hub in Ghana and it already a beach soccer hub in Ghana but they want to put it at a certain level so that people get to see it and say this is Keta, this is beach soccer and already we identify as a beach soccer tourism in the Country".
He also added that in the next few years to come they are looking at bringing in the Africa championship to Keta because they have Golden sun beach, hotels and also a very beautiful environment so they will be able to bring Africa championship to Keta.
"Recently they have identified even a place to put up a permanent Arena in Keta for beach soccer but you know that you are not allowed to put up a permanent Arena at the beach but they will be discussing it with the government officials and hoping you might be seeing the best Arena in Africa in Keta and also they had a land dedicated to beach soccer now in Keta so they are going to put up a structure which will be quite outstanding".
