The Board Chairperson of the Ghana Sports Fund (GSF), Prof Koryoe Anim-Wright, has reassured that the GSF will support all sports disciplines and athletes, rather than solely focusing on the Black Stars. Prof. Anim-Wright made this statement during a meeting with the national executive of the Ghana Journalists Association (GJA), where she introduced the Fund's mandate, vision, and priorities to promote transparency, accountability, and collaboration in sports financing.
The eligible beneficiaries of the GSF include national athletes, federations or associations in good standing with the National Sports Authority (NSA), retired national athletes, and other individuals approved by the Board. Dr David Kofi Mawuvi Wuaku, the Chief Executive of the GSF, emphasized that the Fund is a timely opportunity to promote sports for development in the country and create an economy where sports is valued as much as other prosperous industries.
The GJA's General Secretary, Mr Dominic Hlordzi, applauded the GSF for its engagement and urged the media to offer constructive scrutiny and promote the Fund to attract the necessary resources.
