Five Ghana Premier League clubs have been affected after their home venues were deemed unsuitable for matches following an inspection by the safety and security committee.
Among the major venues affected are the Baba Yara Sports Stadium, home of Asante Kotoko, and the Legon Sports Stadium, used by Accra Hearts of Oak.
Other venues declared unfit for matches include Golden City Park (Berekum Chelsea), AAK Ampain Stadium (Basake Holy Stars), and Wenchi Sports Stadium (Young Apostles).
The Club Lincensing committee’s decision is based on safety and security concerns, as the Ghana Football Association (GFA) continues its effort to enhance the matchday experience and ensure the protection of players, officials, and fans.
With these stadiums unavailable, the affected clubs may have to look for alternative venues to host their home games until the necessary improvements are made.
The Ghana Premier League, which went on an abrupt break, will resume with Matchday 23 on the weekend of Friday, March 7 to Monday, March 10, 2025, according to the GFA.
The resumption is subject to the safety and security assurance inspection of all venues currently being undertaken by the GFA and the Ministry for Sports and Recreation.
