Asamoah Gyan, Ghana’s all-time leading goal scorer, has unveiled a groundbreaking initiative aimed at revolutionizing the country’s sports landscape.

The legendary footballer is spearheading the All Regional Games, a comprehensive program designed to unearth talents across nine sports disciplines, including para-sports.

The initiative’s scope is unprecedented, encompassing football, athletics, volleyball, basketball, tennis, table tennis, boxing, e-sports, and arm-wrestling.

The All Regional Games initiative is a testament to his commitment, and his involvement in refining the program ensures its effectiveness.

As the project unfolds, Ghana’s sports landscape is poised for a transformative shift, thanks to Gyan’s pioneering spirit.
