However, only six of the West African nation’s 16 regions are being covered in this year’s competition in both events with the capital region Greater Accra leading the way.
The Western, Central, Eastern, Volta and Ashanti Regions are the remaining regions set to have representatives compete for the biggest High School basketball title in Ghana.
Qualifiers involving High School Students representing Communities, not High Schools, take place in the various regions and standout players are picked to represent the above mentioned regions in Accra next month.
This year’s Sprite Ball comes off after a long delay due to the effects of the COVID 19 pandemic.
