Hockey: Homowo Gala Saturday
The five senior division clubs in the Greater Accra Hockey League will represent traditional communities of the Greater Accra Region when the 2015 NDK Ga Dangbe Homowo Hockey Gala pushes off on Saturday at the Theodosia Okoh Stadium.
The Chairman of the Greater Accra Hockey Association, Mr George Haizel, told the media the launch of the one-day competition last Tuesday in Accra said the decision to re-name the clubs after traditional Ga communities was to associate with the people football.
