The Ghana Armwrestling Federation has begun registering clubs nationwide for the sport.
A statement by the Federation has called on all who are interested in forming Armwrestling Clubs in their communities, pubs and institutions to pick up registration forms from the regional offices or visit their website or the official social media platforms for Ghana Armwrestling Federation.
The club registration will be preceded by training of coaches in the communities, club leagues and regional championship before the upcoming Africa Armwrestling Championship in Ghana.
The GAF says it is living its vision of encouraging participation and making Armwrestling the preferred sport of choice hence the nationwide Club Registration.
“This forms part of our development and expansion agenda captured in our 2020 strategic plan. We're working to become a top sport in Ghana and a force in Africa,†says Federation head, Charles Osei Asibey.
GAF will formalize registration for 3C Armwrestling -1st club by the president, T20 Armwrestling Club, A1 Armwrestling, Kofikrom Armwrestling Club, Ghana Police, Ghana Immigration, GRA , Ghana Armed Forces and the many organized groups who are already playing Armwrestling.
