The Stephen Appiah Foundation (SAF) in partnership with Alive and Kicking Ghana (A&K Ghana) has developed a new and exciting ball for sale across Ghana.

It has been named after the legendary former Black Stars captain, Stephen Tornado Appiah.
The ‘Tornado Ball’ will be officially launched on Monday, December 15 by the Minister of Youth and Sports, Hon. Mahama Ayariga, at the British High Commissioner’s Residence.
The ‘Tornado Ball’ is worth celebrating. It is made in Ghana with local materials by Alive and Kicking Ghana, a charity organisation which produces and sells over 1,300 sports balls every month in Accra.
The ball will hit the stores at Melcom, Shoprite and GAME from December 15, just in time for the Christmas.
The organisation employs over 36 young people, including people with disabilities, and hopes to support local businesses working in the synthetic leather and rubber industries.
A percentage of the revenues realised from the sale of every ‘Tornado Ball’ will go directly to support the work of the Stephen Appiah Foundation in the areas of health and education through sports.
