Ghana Athletics President Bawa Fuseini has stated that the National Invitational Students Athletics Championship (NISAC) has been included in the list of competitions on the World Athletics calendar.
He said this in an interview on Citi TV’s Breakfast Daily in the lead up to the maiden edition of the senior high school focused competition.
The 2024 NISAC runs from February 24 to February 28 at the University of Ghana Stadium in Legon with over 50 senior high schools set to be represented in the championship.
Speaking on the groundbreaking event in Ghanaian circles, President Fuseini said, “It is not easy for an association like Ghana Athletics to get such a reputable institution like Citi TV to collaborate to do school sports. It has never happened in Ghana before this is the first time we are doing it.”
“The World Athletics was very upbeat about it, they endorsed it and they put it on their calendar. If you go to World Athletics calendar, you will see that the program is there so the results (from NISAC) will be worldwide and it will be accepted everywhere.”
