Reigning UPAC (Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges) Basketball Champions University of Ghana (UG) will have the final round of games in the ongoing inter halls basketball league take place at the University’s Center Court later today.
The games will have Legon Hall take on Commonwealth Hall, Alex Kwapong Hall take on City Campus and Elizabeth Sey Hall play the International Students Hostel team to conclude the first round of the league.
The competition’s second round is set to commence next year at the commencement of the institution’s second semester before the year ends. Authorities including Henry Sackey of the Sports Directorate has lauded the competition which features more teams than last year with the new number set at 14.
Having dominated the Ghanaian scene by winning several titles aside the UPAC Championship, UG’s Male Basketball Team has been keen to replace several departed key pieces with standout talents from the league.
Remaining members of the triumphant team including Shooting Guard Emmanuel Wolff and 2016 Ghana Basketball Awards Tertiary Player of the Year Maxwell Okuampah are competing in the league. Wolff will be in action later today for Kwapong Hall whilst Okuampah plays for Akuafo.
