Ghana Premier League returns Dec 21

The Ghana Premier League is set for a return on December 21, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has announced.

The Division 1 League and the National Women’s League are also expected to kick off on the same weekend.

The start of the league will be preceded by several other activities including the GFA Ordinary Congress on December 12 and the launch of the leagues on December 17.

Significantly, the league will include 18 teams after a GFA Extraordinary Congress increased the number of teams from 16 last month. It will be Ghana’s first 18-club league since 1980.
