Hybrid Pitch Is The Solution To Our Stadia Problems – Blaze Investments To Sports Ministry

The Chief Executive Officer for Blaze Investments(Sports Infrastructure Experts), Alhaji Salifu Sinkare has advised the sports ministry on the installation of Hybrid Pitches at the Accra and Baba Yara Stadia in the wake of the growing challenges of the quality of the pitches.

Ghanaian football fans have shown concerns over the poor maintenance of the natural grass pitches at the various national stadia. The facility at Baba Yara has been the only licensed stadium in Ghana to host grade A national team matches from February, 2022, until the Ghana Football Association on Wednesday 11th September announced the decision of the Confederation of African Football to ban the Baba Yara Sports Stadium from hosting international matches due to the devastating state of the pitch leading to a lot of backlash at the sports Ministry and government for the poor maintenance culture.

Sports Infrastructure Expert Alhaji Salifu Sinkare, CEO of Blaze Investment has advised the Sports Ministry to install FIFA approved Hybrid Pitches at the Accra and Kumasi sports stadia as a lasting solution to the poor pitches at the two facilities. Speaking on the Metro sports show, the sports infrastructure expert said the hybrid pitch is more ideal than the natural grass or astro-turf, ‘’It will cost Ghana about $1M to install the hybrid pitch, but it offers the solution to the problems associated with the pitches. it is easier to maintain the hybrid pitch than any other type of pitch. The players who also play in Europe and other parts of the world find the hybrid pitch more conducive than the others’’.

Ghana is racing against time to find a venue for the next international games following the ban on the Baba Yara Sports Stadium by CAF and the need for a quick lasting solution is prime.The Chief Executive Officer for Blaze Investments(Sports Infrastructure Experts), Alhaji Salifu Sinkare has advised the sports ministry on the installation of Hybrid Pitches at the Accra and Baba Yara Stadia in the wake of the growing challenges of the quality of the pitches.
