CEO
of Rights Multimedia, Yaw Sakyi has insisted Basketball in the Country is not
given the needed attention by officials and the ministry as a whole.
Rights
Multimedia are the organizers of the
annual Sprite ball competition which sees Senior High Schools showcase their
individual skills in Basketball.
“
Basketball in the country is not given the needed attention by the ministry. I
think is high time the ministry give some attention to Basketball. The ministry
and authorities must help put in place more competitions in other to nature
more talents. Apart of the Sprite ball organized by right multimedia, there is
no other Basketball competition”.
“There
are many basketball players outside Ghana who are willing to play for the
national team but have rescind their decision due to the poor nature of
Basketball in the country. At least a Basketball League can be organized in the
country just as a football League is being organized”. Yaw said.
The
Ghana Basketball Association for some time now have been counting on the
ministry to fund Basketball in the country .
Ghana
have failed to make any impact in Basketball whenever they go for International
competition.
