Beneficiaries of the Youth in Sports Programme under the Youth Employment Agency (YEA) have received their first monthly stipend.
The GFA in July, 2020, reached a consensus to enroll five-hundred players in the Women’s Premier League on the Youth in Elite Sports Programme, under the Sports module initiative.
The allowance forms part of governments’ COVID-19 alleviation programme for one thousand (1000) Ghanaian Athletes through the Youth Employment Agency.
The National Sports Authority (NSA) and Youth Employment Agency (YEA), on Friday, June 27, 2020, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to kick-start the programme.
The programme is expected to run for an initial six-month period.
