President of the Ghana Rugby Football Union, Mr. Herbert Mensah, has disclosed that the national team of Ghana will be very busy as they prepare for the West African and African Championships.
After witnessing a thrilling final of the union at the Accra Sports Stadium where Conquerors beat Cosmos Buffaloes 24-3, he commended the players, officials and organisers for putting up a splendid show.
He praised both teams for displaying quality skills and sportsmanship as well as comradeship after the game.
A former Chairman of Kumasi Asante Kotoko, Herbert Mensah, who is the Chairman of the winning Conquerors, urged his players not to rest or take things for granted, but train hard as champions to defend the title.
Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the Greater Accra Rugby Union, Omar Sheriff Captain, expressed gratitude to the media who he said have shown interest in Ghana rugby and promoting the game by way of publicity.
He was impressed with the high standard and level of the game as Conquerors looked intimidating with their physique and structures, but Cosmos were able to contain them with skill and speed, yet they were degassed and let in some lose joints for the champions to score valuable points.
Conquerors beat Cosmos 24-3 for the trophy and in the third-place game, Griffons thrashes Lions 55-3 in another exciting match.
Cosmos Buffaloes Ladies beat Conquerors 12- 5 in a seven-side exhibition game. The accidental game saw two players ending up at the hospital.
Credit must however, go to the medics who attended to injured players at the bench.
