Mr. Emmanuel Olla Williams, President of the Ghana Tug of War Association said this is another opportunity for exposure and experience for the Ghana Team.
“We will try to raise a formidable team to represent Ghana. We have the men, but funding has been our problem. Sports is a tool for unity, friendship and peace on the continent, so we shall try to be there as worthy ambassadors” he said.
The Ghana Tug of War Federation has in recent times brought massive entertainment and sports to Bukom, Mamprobi, Chorkor, Koforidua, Cape Coast and Winneba.
He said there are plans to take the sport to the communities and the Security Services.
