As a new coach, you will typically be placed in schools or club teams where you will be able to encourage young players to develop their skills and teamwork. In most cases, this will involve teaching the basics, so you don’t have to be an experienced coach to make a difference. As you develop and gain in confidence, you will be able to introduce more of your own ideas and organise your own coaching programmes and tournaments for your team.

Alternatively, if you are an experienced player or coach, you will have the opportunity to access some of Ghana's finest athletes and take part in their coaching and training up to junior national team level. At this level, you can make a real contribution to developing the African basketball stars of the future.

Sport is very popular in Ghana and there will be no shortage of ways for you to get in on the action; whether it’s as part of a volunteer sports team or watching an international fixture, there is plenty going on to satisfy your craving for a whole array of competitive sports.
