The exercise started with the newly created Sagnarigu District as 22 colt teams participated in the program. Coaches from the Academy were accompanied by the CEO of TUFA, Abdulai Alhassan in the hunt for good talents.

Speaking to tufaghanafc.com ahead of the exercise, Abdulai Alhassan reiterated the need to give young talents the opportunity to express and showcase their skills and believe TUFA is the right place to exploit these talents.
