The Ghana Premier League, along with all competitions under the Ghana Football Association (GFA), is set to go on a planned break following this weekend’s matches. The decision aligns with efforts to allow all stakeholders in football to participate in Ghana’s upcoming General Elections scheduled for Saturday, December 7, 2024.
The GFA’s 2024/25 season calendar outlines that the break will commence immediately after key fixtures this weekend, which include the MTN FA Cup Round of 64 matches, Matchday 6 of the Malta Guinness Women’s Premier League, and other league games.
This move underscores the GFA’s commitment to supporting national civic activities, as the elections represent a critical moment for the country. The break will provide players, coaches, staff, and fans an opportunity to fulfill their civic responsibilities during the voting process.
League action is scheduled to resume the following weekend, beginning Friday, December 13, 2024. This will mark the return of the Ghana Premier League, the Access Bank Division One League, and the Malta Guinness Women’s Premier League.
As the leagues pause briefly, anticipation is already building for the next round of fixtures, with clubs expected to recharge and refocus for the challenges ahead. Fans can look forward to an exciting restart, as teams push for dominance in the various competitions.
Football enthusiasts are reminded to prioritize their civic duties during this break, as the GFA echoes the importance of every citizen’s role in shaping the future of Ghana.
