Over Hundred home base Ghanaian athletes will be battling qualification for this year’s IAAF World Championship to be held in London.
These Athletes will all assemble at the Baba Yara Sports stadium from the 10 regions culled from security services, Ghana education service and some tertiary institutions.
The competition is the third leg of the GAA National athletics circuit championship out of five outings to be embarked by the athletics outfit for home base potentials.
GAA will also use the event to hunt for athletes into the national athletics team as well as get a team for the Youth Championship in Kenya.
