Four Ghanaian coaches including, Deputy head coach of the Black Stars, Francis Oti Akenteng are scheduled to leave the country in September for Denmark for a two-week top class-coaching course.

The rest are Ebo Mends and Bright Obeng, chairman and coach respectively of Bofoakwa and Kwame Amoako, helmsman of the Osei Kyeretwe Secondary School (OKESS) soccer team in the Asanti region.

Mr Patrick Aidoo, Vice President of the Global Soccer Coaches Developers Association of Ghana (GSCDA), of which the four coaches are members, told the GNA Sports at the lunch of the association's constitution in Accra that two each would be attached to separate clubs in the Northern and Southern Leagues of Denmark.

He said the coaches are attending the course as part of an exchange programme with a sister association that country.

Mr Aidoo said earlier in the year, two resource persons from Denmark were in the country to organise a coaching course for some selected Ghanaian coaches to upgrade their knowledge in the profession.

The association, which aims at bridging the gap between Ghanaian coaches and administrators and their Scandinavian counterparts, sponsored two referees - Peter Yaovi and Justice K. Agbeko (members) and an administrator to the US under a similar programme.

Mr Aidoo said plans are afoot to invite two top-level coaches from Denmark under the programme as resource persons for another course soon at the Winneba Sports College .

He said his outfit would soon opened a branch of the Intercollegiate Association based of the United States, involved in the improvement of skills of referees world-wide.

The GSCDA formed recently aims at co-operating with the Ghana Football Association and other relevant bodies in the development and promotion of football in the country.

The association headed by head coach of the Black Stars, Fred Osam Duodu is also to foster the exchange of ideas and experience in soccer by organising debates, lectures, seminar, symposia, conferences, courses among others to redesign ways of helping the nation to reclaim the top spot as the "powerhouse" of Africa soccer.
