GHALCA to roll out maiden First Lady’s Cup
The Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA) is expected to roll out the first-ever First Lady’s Cup to honour the wife of sitting Presidents.
The club’s welfare body has formalised the maiden edition of the tournament to honour the distinguished First Lady of the West African nation.
The Executive Council of GHALCA has approved the work of the four-member committee chaired by Vice-Chairman John Ansah to kick-start the tournament this year.
“The Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA) wishes to announce to its members that arrangements for the FIRST LADY’S CUP has been concluded by the welfare body, a statement signed by GHALCA Communication Manager Patrick Akoto on Friday read.
“A sub-committee chaired by Vice-Chairman John Ansah started work on the new competition for women football on February 1, 2021 with Linda Ansong, Anita Wiredu-Minta and Edmund Ackah as members.
“The committee has finalized its work which has been approved by the Executive Council and sanctioned by the Ghana Football Association.
“An ex officio member, Anita Wiredu-Minta, has been tasked to liaise with the appropriate authorities as agreed by the Executive Council to see to its implementation.
“GHALCA will like to take this opportunity to thank the Office of the First Lady and the Ghana Football Association for its unflinching support and commitments.
Further arrangements and modalities will be announced by GHALCA in due course.”
Women Premier League teams will participate in the annual competition set to kick-start later this year.
