The Evergreen Teqball club of Accra has won the first ever club championship organized by the teqball federation of Ghana at the Accra Sports Stadium on the 12th of July 2025.
The event organized to bring limelight to clubs competition across Ghana. ‘Teqball is a game for the youth so we want to widen our reach across the country’ said Mr. Mac Quarshie secretary general for TFG.
At this stage Teqball’s evolution is to organize more games or in this case new competitions involving elite clubs and stars that already drive the game. Teqqers were representing the clubs for national glory.
Evergreen Teqqers won the doubles competition beating Keta Sandcity teq club by two straight sets with Casford teqball club coming in third. Joel Afari Arthur won the singles category beating Sylvester Nortey and Michael Owusu from Casford claiming third position.
The Director General of the National Sports Authority Mr Yaw Ampofo Ankrah, attended the event underlining his commitment to ensuring that all sporting disciplines get equal opportunities and necessary support.
He pledged his support to the development and promotion of teqball and advised the players to train more and be consistent.
He also donated 500 cedis to support the event.
Mr Hubert Leo Mensah and executive of TFG thanked the Hon. Kwadwo Baah of the Normalization Committee for his leadership and support whilst acknowledging Fiteq recognition of the championship.
We looking forward to host the west Africa championship in Ghana this October and also seek a demonstration at the national para games in November 2025.
For those with the drive and talent teqball offers a new frontier for a sporting career. As the sport continues to expand, opportunities abound for athletes to make their mark, both on and off the teq table.
With its non-contact nature and gender-equitable competitions, teqball not only promotes a healthy sporting environment but also champions inclusivity, making it a field ripe for professional development.
