GFA boss satisfied with congress outcome

President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Kwasi Nyantakyi has expressed satisfaction at the deliberations and outcome of this year's ordinary congress.

The one-day congress held at the Ghanaman Soccer of Excellence on Wednesday brought together all delegates from the Association's body to deliberate on issues for the upcoming season.

Among some of the key things that the Association touched on was a new directive for the reserve league.

According to congress, only players under seventeen years will be eligible to play in the reserve league next two seasons.

Kwasi Nyantakyi who presided over the congress in an interview with Joy Sports stated how swiftly the one day congress was.

“This has been the swiftest congress I have ever attended or presided over, the issues were dealt with very professionally and straight to the point, there was no waste of time and indulgence of unnecessary talk and delegates were on point in their deliberations,” said Nyantakyi

“Sometimes when people research the issues that are to be discussed at congress, it helps in getting the discussions through quickly.

“I believe that delegates read the documents that were given them two weeks before congress, they also did their researches on what was going to be discussed so we had very smooth deliberations.”

Also in attendance was the Youth and Sports Minister Elvis Afriyie Ankrah.
