FLASHBACK: A basket ball action from one of the editions
All is
set for this year’s Seven Great Princes Academy sports festival, organisers of
the annual event have disclosed.
But
unlike the previous editions, this year’s edition which is scheduled for
February 12 will be confined to the school’s Dansoman branch as indoor
games.
Noted for
its brilliance in academics, the school has demonstrated over the years that it
is a force to reckon with in sports as well.
Indications
are that the three-day competition is expected to attract over 200 students who
will battle for supremacy from February 12 to 14.
Athletes
will compete for honours in seven disciplines comprising table tennis,
basketball, scrabble, sack race, fill-in-the bottle, spoon and lime and musical
chairs.
The Lower
and Upper Primary department of the school, which has two branches like the
Latebiokorshie and Dansoman, will compete for honours in the fill-in-the
bottle, spoon and lime race, musical chairs and sack race.
From February
13 to 14, the junior high school (JHS) and senior high school (SHS) departments
will compete among themselves in basketball, table tennis and scrabble.
The
competition primarily seeks to unearth talents for a national cause, besides
fostering friendships among the students.
It is
also to create sports awareness as a major tool for youth development
and national cohesion.
Expected
to grace the event are former students like Asamoah Gyan, Black Stars former
captain; Eric Amoah, a former national table tennis star, and Charles Nii Armah
Mensah, also known as Shatta Wale.
