The Association For Sports Federation On Disability held a forum to engage people in disability sports, plan for the association and find ways to promote disability sports to attract companies for sponsorship.
Mr. Shaaban Mohammend, the president of ASFOD, said the federation is still in existence and cares a lot about the welfare of its members in disability sports.
“Hopefully there will be an election next year. Big programmes are ahead of us, and we encourage our members to be active in the game of disability because there are more opportunities in the pipeline that ASFOD will execute to make disability sports better again” he said.
He announced that the association will organise the maiden edition of National Disability Day in 2025, which will be the first of its kind in the history of ASFOD.
He stated that the Association for Sports Federation on Disability is committed to supporting the development of disability sports at all levels by saying, “ASFOD seeks to provide guidelines and technical support to its members to achieve laurels for mother Ghana and get a better life.”
ASFOD’s aim is to encourage and equip all disabled men and women in the street to discover their talent and join disability sports for the development of disability sports in Ghana.
