There are just 31 days to go before the 2016 European Championship kicks off in France, but here in the warm, humid Ghana, you wouldn't know it.
Attention of football fans is still very much on the finale of the major European leagues. Even in the case of those where winners are already known, such as England, Italy, and France, the Champions League and Europa League places are still getting interest.
That said, the Joy Sports team is anticipating a surge in awareness and hype once the leagues are done, which is why a full one-month buildup to the tournament kicks off now!
So, what should we expect?
