GFA to launch 2026/27 Colts Football Season
The Colts system gives young, skilled players a clear training path to grow their talents, learn real match tactics and move up into national football.
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has scheduled the grand unveiling of the 2026/27 Colts Football Season for September 15 at 3:00 PM at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram. This event comes in the wake of vital backing from Ghana's President, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, who emphasized the importance of nurturing youth talent to restore the nation's football legacy.
Mahama lamented the decline of the Colts League, once a vital platform for identifying and developing young talents. He posed a pressing question to the Football Association: "What happened to the Colts League?"
The Colts league plays a crucial role in providing young, skilled players with a structured pathway to hone their abilities, grasp practical match strategies, and progress into the national team. This initiative not only aims to revive a legacy that once produced football icons like Abedi Pele, Michael Essien, and Asamoah Gyan, but also seeks to establish a consistent supply of promising players capable of representing Ghana on the international stage.
