The Sprite Ball Trophy Tour recently touched base at Prempeh College in Kumasi as part of the Ashanti Region leg of the Tour.
The school is one of two regional representatives in the upcoming Sprite Ball Championship at the El Wak Stadium in Accra from January 11-12.
Bitter rival Opoku Ware School is the region’s other representative in the Boys Division after winning the regional competition ahead of Prempeh via a 26-21 win.
For Prempeh, qualifying to next year’s competition gives the school another chance at reliving the highs of the 2010 edition where the school placed second behind Mfantsipim School.
Since the 2010 adventure, Prempeh has yet to play in the semifinal or the final game over the years and the last edition was its best performance in a while.
The team made it to the quarterfinals but got knocked out by Mfantsipim after missing a ton of free throws in the close game.
Coach Frank “Agoro Nana” Agyei leads the team’s technical department.
