GFA offers free License D Coaching course at Northern Region

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) will roll out the free Licence ‘D’ coaching course for Colts and Women Division One League coaches in the Northern Region.

The eight-day coaching course will be held at the Aliu Mahama Sports Stadium in Tamale from August 13-20, 2024, just a day after the conclusion of a similar exercise in the Ashanti Region which ends on Monday August 12.

This coaching licence course is in line with the GFA’s vision of offering practical training and impacting knowledge to Coaches at the Colts and Women Division One League level in the country.

This is in fulfilment of the pledge by Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Edwin Simeon-Okraku, with 30 participants from the Northern Region, latest to benefit from the Coaching programme.

The 30 prospective coaches, who are already working with Colts and Women Division One League clubs but do not have coaching certificates, have been selected by their respective clubs to undergo the training.

Per the new CAF Coaching Convention, the course is expected to have both theory and practical sessions for seven (7) days of required contact hours, after which participants would be assessed practically and examined theoretically.

The free training will ensure that, ultimately, each Colts club in the country will have at least one certified coach to help in the development process.

This will help to bridge the gap created after the FA announced that all Colts Club Coaches must be, at least, License D holders.

GFA Technical Director Professor Joseph Kwame Mintah and GFA Director of Coaching Education, Desmond Sakyi Ofei together with CAF Coaching Instructors, will oversee the eight-day exercise in Kumasi with administrative support from Andrews Kwesi Eshun.
