About Us
Aspire Football Foundation started as a small initiative in 2002 at Presec Staff Primary School. Initially supporting youth in Madina’s slums, we have grown into a formally registered foundation as of 2024. Our mission is to empower youth aged 15-20 through football and education, helping them thrive both on and off the field.
Our Story
Our Story
The word "Aspire" was chosen as it reflects the core values and mission of the foundation. It symbolizes ambition, hope, and the drive to reach greater heights. By incorporating "Aspire" into the name, the foundation highlights its commitment to empowering young individuals to dream big, set goals, and work towards achieving their full potential both in Sports and Education. AFF GH (Aspire Football Foundation) is a non-profit organization based in Ghana, founded in 2002 at Presec Staff Primary School. Initially operating informally, the organization began its journey by supporting youth in and around the slums of Madina and evolved over time. AFF-GH started with a small group of students at the primary school who formed a team called One-touch FC. The foundation then expanded its impact to the Boi United team in the Abokobi community, offering mentorship and guidance to young individuals and helping them develop both on and off the pitch.
The foundation had een actively engaged in local communities and youth development for many years, but it wasn’t until 2024 that it gained official registration. That year, it was formally recognized and renamed Aspire Football Foundation – Ghana (AFF-GH). The foundation oversees Banky Rovers FC, a football team operating under its umbrella. With a renewed focus and a legacy of impactful work, AFF-GH is dedicated to empowering young individuals aged 15 to 20. Through football, the organization seeks to promote not only athletic development but also the cultivation of essential life skills, discipline, and personal growth.
The foundation’s mission is centered on inspiring and motivating youth, encouraging them to set and pursue their goals. AFF-GH believes that football can serve as a powerful educational platform, helping young individuals build the values and skills needed to thrive in their communities. In addition to athletic training and the promotion of good cardiovascular health, the organization is committed to supporting these young people in achieving their academic and professional aspirations with particular focus on helping them pursue careers as professional athletes if they so wish.
