Ghana's national sport is Football and the country's interest in the game is at an all-time high given the successful performance of the team in the 2010 World Cup.
Ghanaians are extremely passionate about football and their love for the game is evident everywhere. You can see people wearing the Ghana Team jerseys and the cars on the road having the team stickers and flags. Plan Aid places volunteers in this program in local schools and football clubs in Accra. The people of Accra love the game of football, especially since the city has got a brand-new football stadium. Volunteers’ role is to assist the local coaches in their daily practice schedule with the local players. Volunteers can also help the students in local schools to improve their game and organize football matches.
