“There is hope our youth can achieve success in what they set out to do. Your effort in beach soccer reminds me of the bravery of our ancestors. I urge you not to rest on your oars but continue to make waves globally”.
Mr Adjahoe for his part expressed his appreciation to the management of Aborigines beach resorts and all who supported the club financially at various stages.
He gave the assurance to make Keta, the beach soccer hub in Ghana and the sub region.
