The National Juvenile Association (NJA) has set up a committee in all the regions to conduct registration of colts players for the U-12 and 14 colts leagues. The committees, which were formed as result of an emergency meeting held by the Executive Committee of the NJA last week is spread across the ten regions of the country,
For the three regions in the north, - Upper East, Upper West and the Northern Region, Messrs B.S.K. Quinoo and Jordan Anagbla would be in charge, while Messrs Henry Aryee and Sam Yeboah would be responsible for the Ashanti and Brong Ahafo Regions. Messrs Haliday Doe Adika and B.B. Bekoe are those to charge of the Eastern Region while Chief Inspector Seth Frempong would be in control of the Central and West Regions while Messrs Evans Amenumey and Precious Kudjoe would be responsible for the Volta Region.
For Greater Accra, Mr M.M.S. Doe would be in charge of the registration exercise. The registration exercise would be used to experiment on the new modalities for registration of players in age competitions in order to reduce the problem of over aged players in age group competitions.
Under this new arrangement, players to be registered in the Under 12 and 14 would be weighed as one of the measures to determine their ages while graduation from the U- 14 to 17 category would be automatic.
