  I'm shocked to know that Ghana has a weightlifting team. Where has such a team been all these years? Why hasn't the team participated in the Olympic Games? This is a joke!

  BECAUSE YOU ARE A WASTE PIPE YOURSELF , YOU ARE SAYING THIS . DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO BECOME A TOP PERFORMER IN SPORTS ? I BELIEVE YOU HAVE NEVER DONE ANY SPORT TO THE TOP LEVEL TO KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO BE THERE, AND EVEN WHEN YOU ARE TO BE SUPPORTED BY YOUR NATION'S RESOURCES . DO NOT SAY THIS AGAIN , THE BEST THING FOR THEM TO DO IS TO GO AND PERFORM AND THEN THEY WILL GAIN THE EXPERIENCE NEEDED FOR FUTURE GAMES BECAUSE OUR SPORTSMEN AND WOMEN ONLY TRAIN HERE - NO INTERNATIONAL EXPOSURE BEFORE ANY MAJOR TOURNAMENT LET ALONE MOTIVATION AS COMPARED TO BLACKSTARS . IF THE BLACKSTARS ARE GETTING GOOD CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP AND THEY ARE BEING PAID AS MUCH AS 15000,DOLLARS FOR MATCH WHY CANT THE MONEY VOTED FOR SPORTS BE CHANNELED TO PUSH AND DEVELOP THE SO-CALLED LESSER KNOWN SPORTING DISCIPLINED LIKE HOCKEY ,ATHLETICS, TABLE-TENNIS , TENNIS, VOLLEYBALL,SWIMMING,HANDBALL ETC I REST MY CASE.

  SUPER SPORT DEAL FOR GPL TELEVISION COVERAGE
  HOW DO U SELL THE LEAGUE RIGHTS TO SUPER SPORT FOR $700,000 A YR, NOW GFA SAYS ITS 2.1 MILLION?. JESUS CHRIST, THIS GUY IS TOO STUPID TO BE GFA HEAD. SUPERSPORT WILL NOW SELL SOME OF THE GAMES TO TV COMPANIES/NATIONS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN BUYING/WATCHING GH LEAGUE GAMES. IS 700,000 DOLLARS A GOOD ENUFF FIGURE FOR GFA N OUR LEAGUE CLUBS? LOOK AT THE POPULARITY OF GH SOCCER IN AFRICA N ALL OVER THE WORLD. ON WAT BASIS/CRITERIA DID SUPERSPORT N GFA REACH TO DECIDE ON THIS MEAGRE FIGURE? LOOK, GH LEAGUE IS NOT LIKE THE TANZANIAN OR MALAWI LEAGUE TO COMMAND SUCH LOW FIGURES. WE HAVE MADE A NAME FOR OUR BRAND OF SOCCER OVER THE YRS.

  PRIMITIVE GH, GFA...U SEE $2.1 MILLION for 3 yrs FROM SUPERSPORT, U LOSE UR REASONING. WHEN U COULD HVE GOTTEN MORE. GYIMI MPANIN TOTO GFA! KENYA N NAIJA ARE GETTING 10 TIMES MORE!
  South African satellite channel SuperSport International has agreed to pay in excess of R2-billion (approximately US$285-million) for the TV, mobile and internet rights for the country’s
  Premier Soccer League (PSL) over the next five years. SuperSport has signed a US$2.5 million deal with the Football Association of Zambia (FAZ) to secure the broadcasting rights to the country's top soccer league.
  The deal will run from 2011 to 2013. Nigeria's top domestic soccer league has secured a four-year broadcast deal with SuperSport reported as worth US$34 million in total.
  The Ugandan Super League (USL),has inked a US$5 million, 5year broadcast deal with South African-based sports channel SuperSport.
  South African pay-TV operator SuperSport has agreed a broadcast deal with the Football Kenya Federation (FKF), the deal will see SuperSport provide live coverage of 20 matches from Kenya’s
  second division, starting with Wednesday’s match between Nakumatt FC and Moyas FC, until the end of the current season. The Tusker Premier League, the highest level of club soccer in Kenya,
  has signed a three-and-a-half year deal with Puma. The deal, which is worth US$117,000 overall, will see Puma sponsor and supply match balls used in the league. "The partnership between KPL and Puma will cost Kshs ten million over three and a half years.
  “Each team will be provided with balls while Puma will gain on pitch side branding and as well on the broadcasting point of view SuperSport will be able to capture the brand.”
  East Africa Breweries Limited's (EABL) Tusker brand has been announced as the new title sponsor of the Kenyan Premier League (KPL). The multi-year agreement, worth US$1.96 million overall,
  sees the top flight of soccer within Kenya officially known as the Tusker Premier League for the next three years.
  Kenyan Premier League (KPL) sides Mathare United and Ulinzi Stars have announced new sponsorship deals with Puma and Metropolitan Life respectively.
  Mathare United's one-year apparel deal with Puma sees the German sports manufacturer supplying the soccer team with boots, replica merchandise to sell to fans as well as playing and training kit.
  The combined value of Puma's contribution will total US$34,000. Meanwhile KPL champions Ulinzi Stars, a soccer team made up of the country's military servicemen, have signed a US$17,000 deal with Metropolitan Life Insurance.
  The Zambian Super Division is also sponsored by MTN Zambia, which in June announced a 2.4 billion kwacha (about US$480 000), as their sponsorship package this year for both Chipolopolo and the top-flight league with the winner of the championship race getting about US$50 000.
  With Dynamos collecting US$75 000, for winning the Premiership title last year under the sponsorship deal between the PSL and Delta Beverages through their Castle Lager brand, it appears the domestic Premiership is still, to some extent, better sponsored compared to the one in Zambia.
  The Kenyan Premier League is operated and run as a private limited company incorporated in October 2003 under the Companies Act of Kenya. It is fully owned and managed by the 16 member clubs with each club being a shareholder
  KPL and SuperSport signed a $5.5 million four-year partnership deal, the biggest football sponsorship in the country and in the region. The deal
  which is expected to expire in 2011 will see a renegotiated contract double that amount to $11 million.
  WHITE JERSEY!
  HERE IS MY SUGGESTION.
  THIS WHITE SHIRT MUST HAVE A COLLAR. THE JERSEY MUST ALSO HAVE LONG BLACK, TINY STRIPES THROUGHOUT FOR BOTH THE SHIRT AND SHORTS AND WHITE HOES. THE GFA LOGO MUST MUST BE EMBEDDED INSIDE A HUGE BLACK STAR ON THE LEFT/CHEST AREA.
  HERE IS MY SUGGESTION. THE RED N YELLOW JERSEY SHOULD BE MAINTAINED, BUT WITH WHITE SHORTS. IF IN DOUBT, YOU CAN CONTACT OZWALD BOATENG IN THE UK FOR ASSISTANCE. GFA, DONT BE LAZY AND MEDIOCRE.
  IF YOU PUT MORE WORK IN AN APPEALING JERSEY/KIT. IT WILL BE REPLICATED IN THE SELLING OF THESE JERSEYS.
