But this year’s edition stood out not only for football.
The Ghana Anti-Doping Committee led a powerful Drug Abuse Awareness Workshop, educating athletes and community members on the dangers of substance abuse and the importance of discipline in sports and life. Participants gained a deeper understanding of the benefits of living drug-free and making healthier lifestyle choices.
Financial empowerment also took centre stage.

The session encouraged the youth to adopt strong financial habits, laying foundations for future success in personal and entrepreneurial ventures.
The day was further enriched with entertainment, raffle draws, and giveaways. Attendees won exciting prizes such as television sets, headsets, and soundbars, courtesy of PrideSpins, while local DJs kept the energy alive.
