Mr. Kobby Okyere Darko-Mensah, the Regional Minister, said the victory affirmed the region's position, as a leader with a lot to offer the country.

He urged management of the team to plan, organise, coordinate and implement good policies that would attract investors into the sector.

The Minister said the government was committed to restoring confidence in the sector, "the days where one knew the scores before play is over".

Mr. Darko-Mensah told the girls that, "we are celebrating your achievement today and urge you to continue to strive for excellence in your chosen carrier to enable you to get into the international market and make some good monies for your living".
