The Ghana Football Association (GFA) is set to launch a Talent Identification program on Wednesday, October 5, 2022 at the GFA Secretariat at 11am.
The National Elite Talent Identification and Development Program is a plan put together to identify and develop the best-talented youth players in the country to form the base of the various national teams.
The program is a comprehensive Youth Development Plan that is aimed at addressing all the shortfalls in the Ghanaian football ecosystem.
The yet to be unveiled program is believed to be a well thought out blueprint ready for implementation across the various Districts and Regional Football Associations.
Scouts, Coaches and Talent Developers would be deployed to work with the Regional Football Associations to hunt for young talented footballers who will form the base of the national youth teams.
The Technical Directorate led by Bernhard Lippert will roll out plans, strategies, programs, policies and selection criteria that have been earmarked to select the best football talents to form the national Academy.
