Where in Ghana does your program exist? How often? And do u need Tribal permission to host this event?
And one more question…Puma supports the National Soccer Program do u get any support from them?
Wayne, We run the program in Accra and Tamale with our implementing partner Youth Icons. We do work with the tribal chielfs in Tamale. We also work with Standard Chartered Bank and Liverpool FC to teach their Goal program. We do work with GFA coaches but not with Puma. The next program is in April 2013. Many thanks.
