National Sports Authority (NSA) in Ashanti has shared new images of the Baba Yara Stadium pitch, showcasing its restored lush green appearance ahead of the Black Stars’ match against Angola.
The pitch, now looking healthy, underwent extensive refurbishment following a church event in June 2024, which had left it in poor condition.
The NSA’s efforts to bring the pitch back to a high standard were successful, fulfilling their promise to have it ready in time for the upcoming game.
“We have a robust plan, a crack field, and a maintenance team to recover the pitch and restore the facility in general in record time throughout August. Stakeholders can rest assured,” the NSA Ashanti Region stated in a post on X.
The Black Stars will host Angola in Kumasi on September 5, 2024, before visiting Niger on September 9.
