McDan Group has again paid Ghana Tennis Federation (GTF) affiliation fee debt of $ 17,378 at his plush East Legon residence.

McDan Group Executive chairman Dr Daniel McKorley presenting the cheque on Thursday, May 31 said the support forms part of his company's quest to ensure tennis succeeds in the country.

He charged the Federation to roll out plans to clinch more silverwares saying " I want to see Ghana win more trophies. The coming years would be exciting for Ghana tennis. McDan is a results-oriented company, whatever we touch succeeds. I thank the Federation for and all who are making the sport what it is today."

GTF president, I Isaac  Aboagye-Duah expressed thanks to the McDan chief for the gesture.

In 2015, the shipping and logistics giants bailed out the Federation from same financial predicament.

McDan has been sponsoring the McDan West Africa Open Tennis championship for five years. Last year, Mcdan donated a brand new Mercedes Benz bus to the Federation as well as offered educational sponsorship to eight tennis players.
