RTU, Rospack FC, Port City FC, Dreams Ladies and Police Ladies to receive brand new buses ahead of 2026/27 season
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has presented brand-new team buses to five domestic football clubs as part of its ongoing efforts to improve the welfare and operational capacity of clubs across the country.
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has recently gifted five domestic football clubs with brand-new team buses, ahead of the 2026/27 season. This initiative is part of the GFA's Bus Acquisition Strategy, spearheaded by President Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku, in an effort to tackle the challenges faced by clubs in Ghana's football landscape.
Transportation has long been identified as a major operational hurdle for many clubs, who often undertake long-distance travel for league and cup matches under considerable financial strain. Providing dedicated team buses, the GFA believes, will alleviate these burdens and elevate the standard of their travelling squads in terms of safety, comfort, and professionalism.
This latest bus acquisition follows the GFA's previous allocations of buses to Division One League clubs, as part of its strategy to bolster the grassroots of Ghanaian football. The association is convinced that reliable transportation can contribute significantly to enhancing the overall organization of domestic competitions. With their own buses, teams can better manage travel logistics and cut down costs related to hiring vehicles for away matches.
The buses handed over to the beneficiary clubs are not merely vehicles; they are valuable assets that can bolster their day-to-day operations and help ease some financial pressures tied to running a football club. This gesture also underscores the GFA's broader aspiration to foster a more professional football environment in Ghana.
By addressing the need to "fix the fundamentals," the association aims to equip clubs with the essential resources to compete effectively. As the country gears up for another domestic football season, the newly acquired buses are anticipated to deliver a substantial boost to the beneficiary clubs, further solidifying the GFA's commitment to improving the infrastructure and welfare systems surrounding the country's domestic game.
