  "summary": "The Ghana Sports Fund has called on national sports federations to submit credible proposals and set measurable targets for athlete development and sporting performance. Dr. David Kofi Wuaku, the Administrator of the Ghana Sports Fund, challenged the federations to take greater responsibility for their development plans and to identify their most pressing needs. He emphasized the importance of strategic planning, effective administration, and measurable performance across the sporting sector. The Ghana Sports Fund Act, 2025 (Act 1159), identifies federations and associations in good standing with the National Sports Authority as eligible beneficiaries of the Fund, but eligibility alone does not guarantee financial support. Applications must meet the applicable requirements and pass through the relevant assessment and approval processes before funding can be granted.",
