English Premier League side West Ham United will be in Ghana next month for two days with the club’s record signing Andre Ayew and Alvaro Arbeloa on board.

The visit has been made possible by the club’s sponsors Betway which recently launched in Ghana.

West Ham officials will interact with 20 Ghana Premier League coaches at a workshop where they will be exposed to some modern football officiating trends on the 5th of October 2016, at the Alisa Hotel in Accra.

This will be followed by a sports clinic at the Lizzy Sports Complex in East Legon on the 6th of October, 2016 where coaches and footballers will be taken through practical rudiments of football.

The unique initiative is the first of many stakeholder engagements that Betway Ghana will undertake.

The partnership between Betway and West Ham puts them in a unique position to contribute tremendously to this area of football, in the country.

West Ham’s super stars Ayew and Arbeloa will spend time with a cross-section of their fans at the Betway Store in Adabraka and at the Accra Mall on 5th October.

Fans will get the opportunity to take photographs with them and get autographs. West Ham fans will receive coveted prizes from their sports idols and the chance to win an ultimate prize.

The programme is the first of many projects the sports betting brand and their partner will be rolling out in the Ghanaian Market.
