Betting giants Soccabet, together with the Simon Agbotsu Foundation held a ‘love and laughter’ game for the physically challenged.
The event took place on Sunday, February 23, 2023, at the Accra Sports Stadium.
The event which was the fourth edition is part of Soccabet’s commitment to supporting Persons with Disability.
The games played included basketball, boxing, tennis and football. All participants were awarded medals with no specification regarding winners or losers.
The founder of Simon Agbotsu Foundation, Mr Simon Agbotsu said the purpose of the annual event is to put smiles on the faces of Persons with Disability.
“Love and Laughter was birthed because we wanted to put smiles on the faces of Persons with Disability and we also wanted to show them some love. Hence the theme, Love and Laughter”, he said.
Mr Agbotsu, however, said that the next chapter of the event will be held in the Northern part of the country to enable PWDs in the region to have a share of the joyful initiative.
