Destroy property at Baba Yara and face the law – Ashanti Sports Federation warns SHS students ahead of Milo Games
The Ashanti Sports Federation under the Ghana Education Service has warned that any student caught destroying property at the Kumasi Baba Yara Stadium during the upcoming Milo Games will face the law.
The Federation has also warned that Senior High School students will be surcharged for any damages caused after the games.
The move, according to the Federation, is to ensure discipline while protecting state property at the same time.
The Spokesperson for the Federation, Samuel Otu, disclosed this in an interview with OTEC News Reporter, Kwame Agyenim Boateng, on Sunday.
He said the qualifying stage for Senior High Schools in the Ashanti Region will begin on Tuesday, November 10, 2026.
“We have earmarked eight centres for the qualifiers, so latest by Friday, we will know the 32 schools that will move to the next stage of the competition,” he said.
“The 32 will be moved to the Kumasi Baba Yara Stadium where they will compete for the glory in the 2026 Milo Games for SHS in the Ashanti Region,” Mr. Otu added.
He urged school managements and parents to speak to their wards ahead of the games to avoid being caught on the wrong side of the law.
Mr. Otu stressed that the Federation is committed to organizing a peaceful and successful competition, and will not tolerate any act of vandalism.
He therefore called on all participating schools to exhibit discipline, sportsmanship, and respect for state property throughout the games.
