Boxing officials urge NSA and Ghana Sports Fund to invest in grassroots athlete development

Boxing officials have called on the National Sports Authority (NSA) and the Ghana Sports Fund to increase investment in grassroots sports, saying Ghana's long-term success at international competitions depends on developing young talent from an early age.

The meeting formed part of a series of engagements between Dr Wuaku and Team Ghana athletes and officials at the Commonwealth Games, with discussions focusing on athlete welfare, sports funding and long-term strategies to improve Ghana's performance on the international stage.

The appeal was made during a meeting with the Director-General of the National Sports Authority, Yaw Ampofo Ankrah, and the Administrator of the Ghana Sports Fund, Dr David Kofi Wuaku, on the sidelines of the Commonwealth Games.
