The Ghana Football Association (GFA) Club Licensing Department has concluded its venue assessments ahead of the Ghana Premier League’s resumption on March 7.
As part of the new safety protocols, thorough inspections were conducted, resulting in the full approval of some venues, the rejection of others, and conditional approval for certain facilities.
GFA General Secretary has explained why some Ghana Premier League (GPL) venues received only conditional approval.
“We have not entirely rejected the stadiums; rather, we identified security concerns, particularly regarding the safe zone. However, other aspects were also considered. The primary issue at Baba Yara and University of Ghana venue is security. We are working with the clubs and facility owners to address these concerns,” he told TV3.
Following the latest inspections, five venues—TNA Stadium, Dr. Kwame Kyei Sports Complex, Dun’s Park Bibiani, Nsekyire Sports Arena, and Kpando Sports Stadium—were fully approved for use.
However, Baba Yara Stadium and the University of Ghana Stadium must enhance their safety measures before being cleared to host matches.
A follow-up inspection is scheduled for March 9, with clubs required to implement the necessary upgrades by then.
