The Ghana Football Association has announced a new Management Committee for the senior national team, the Black Stars.
The committee will be chaired by Dr. Randy Abbey, an Executive Committee member of the GFA.
He will be in charge of all government engagement activities on behalf of the team.
Other members include Stephen Appiah, a former captain of the team, who will be the deputy chairman in charge of player relations.
Medeama SC President Moses Armah Parker, Mr. Richard Nsenkyire, and Samuel Aboabire are also committee members.
“We are excited to announce the formation of this new Management Committee, which brings together a team of experienced and dedicated individuals who are passionate about Ghana football,” said GFA President, Kurt E.S. Okraku.
“We are confident that they will work tirelessly to support the Black Stars and ensure their success.” he added during the unveiling at the GFA office.
The newly formed committee will be responsible for following up on the release of funds for team operations from the Ministry of Sports and Recreation, ensuring that the best travel arrangements are in place, and ensuring that members of the team act in a manner worthy of ambassadors of Ghana.
The Management Committee will ensure that appropriate policies and procedures are put in place for the effective management and support of the playing body and officials of the team, as well as for maintaining a cordial relationship between the committee, the technical team, and the playing body.
They will also interface with the Marketing and Communications Departments of the GFA to ensure the effective and efficient delivery of all commitments to sponsors and partners, as well as seamless communication about the team.
Their mandate starts immediately as the Black Stars prepare to face Chad in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers in March.
