Central Regional Regional Football Association Chairman Robert Otieku Duncan, has made a passionate appeal to clubs to desist from using social media in tarnishing the image of the Association. He said club administrators should rather use the medium to promote and protect Football to attract sponsors and to encourage more businessmen to invest in the game.

Robert Duncan gave this advise when he met clubs at Awutu Senya East and Gomoa East at Kasoa as part of his Regional tour of Districts in the Central Region. The visit was aimed at getting first hand information from all stakeholders and to address their challenges to enhance grassroots football development.

He entreated clubs to use the right channels in addressing their grievances but not run to media to publish stories that destroys the very product they are selling.

The ace administrator took time to answer questions from club officials including the media present.

Most of the questions centered on player registration and delays in printing of player licenses. He also answered questions relating to game centers, the catch them young policy amongst others.

Some club owners expressed worry over availability of good pitches for their training and games. They also appealed to the FA for logistical support for juvenile and other lower Division clubs.

From Kasoa, he continued his tour to Swedru where he addressed scores of club officials and referees.
