Ghana's national 100m record holder, Benjamin Azamati, has encouraged Ghanaians to adopt an all-inclusive approach after the successful completion of the third Junior Olympics.
Azamati's remark comes after Thursday's Junior Olympics athletic meet, where budding talents from Under-4 level through to Under-17 were handed the opportunity to compete at the University of Ghana Stadium.
In an effort to bridge the gap between Ghana and the rest of the world at major athletic events, the double Olympian believes the Junior Olympics is the right approach to implement. "Absolutely, I think this is the way to go.
The Americans introduce the kids to sports at a very young age; that's why you see most of their talents very young on the world stage.
