Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku has expressed his confidence in the newly launched Women's Football Strategy, emphasizing its significance in advancing women's football in Ghana.
The strategy was officially unveiled on Tuesday, July 4, as part of the GFA's ongoing efforts to enhance the state of women's football in the country.
President Simeon-Okraku highlighted the importance of the Women's Football Strategy as a foundation for the progress and growth of women's football in Ghana.
The strategy aims to provide a structured development approach, outlining clear goals, objectives, and action plans to bolster the sport at all levels.
One of the key aspects emphasized by President Simeon-Okraku was the strategy's commitment to offering equal opportunities to females involved in the football ecosystem.
“This strategy offers a structured development. A national strategy provides a framework for the structured development of women’s football, outlining clear goals, objectives and action plans to enhance the sport’s growth at all levels,” President Simeon-Okraku said.
“The women’s strategy offers equal opportunities to all females who desire to work in the football ecosystem. It ensures that women and girls have equal opportunities to participate in football, receive proper training and access resources and support including addressing gender disparities in the sport.
“It offers the opportunity for talent identification and development. A well-defined national strategy for women undoubtedly will help identify and nurture talented female footballers from the grassroots level up to the top of the football ecosystem,’’ he added.
The Women's Football Strategy encompasses six pillars that form the Women's Football eco-system.
These pillars include grassroots football development, talent identification, marketing, promotion, and sponsorship, national teams enhancement, league development, and education.
