The eighth edition of the Sheikh Sharubutu Ramadan Cup was officially launched at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra.
Minister for Sports, Hon. Mustapha Ussif, General Secretary of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Prosper Harrison Addo and Head Coach of the Black Meteors, Ibrahim Tanko were amongst the sports community's high fraternity present.
Member of parliament for Yendi, Farouk Aliu Mahama chaired the event.
Tanko, fresh from guiding the Meteors to Afcon u-20 qualification, promised to provide the trophy for this year’s edition.
Tamimu Issah, who birthed the idea of a ramadan Cup eight years ago, emphasised the tournament is not exlcusive to muslims. 30 Zongo communities will compete in this year's edition; 2 more than last year's.
The competition has been scheduled for April 29 and 30 at the Fadama Astroturf.
