Nick Petroleum, Beach Soccer Clubs team up for coastal sports development

The Ghana Beach Soccer Clubs Union (GBSCU) and Nick Petroleum are set to embark on a partnership that will see registered beach soccer teams receiving support to carry out some of their activities in communities where the sport is patronised.

The ground-breaking announcement and launch event took place at the Laboma Beach Resort in Accra on Saturday (21 September) in conjunction with the maiden edition of the Ghana Beach Sports Festival and the 2024 World Clean Up Day. 

Apart from beach soccer, the sports festival also featured rugby league, beach volleyball, beach boxing and beach aerobics to coincide with activities marking the “2024 World Clean Up Day.”

The partnership support is the initiative of Beach Soccer Ghana (BSG), the agency responsible for beach soccer corporate social responsibility (CSR) projects, community engagement activities, sanitation education, environmental awareness, as well as sports tourism through coastal festivals in Ghana. 

BSG has been the supporting pillar of beach soccer clubs since the official formation of beach soccer in 2011.

Managers and executives of Nick Petroleum, including Miriam Danso, were in attendance to support and participate in the beach community corporate clean-up exercise along with hundreds of athletes, vendors and locals. 

The human resources manager of Nick Petroleum, Agnes Kwakye, reiterated the company’s commitment to excellence as well as being a responsible corporate organisation.

“We are delighted to come on board and support the growth, development and projection of beach soccer clubs in Ghana. This is just the beginning so hopefully there will be more to come in future.” 

She stated that Nick Petroleum, over the years, has positioned itself as a leading petroleum company with their comprehensive range of services and quality products across the country.

“All our stations provide well-stocked minimarts and lubrication bays, ensuring vehicles receive top-quality fuels and oils with superior customer service while on-site.”

Also in attendance was the chairman of the GBSCU, Gyamfi Kusi Awere, as well as the CEO of BSG, Yaw Ampofo Ankrah. 

Meanwhile, as part of the sanitation education and environmental awareness campaign, the clubs union will be active in coastal areas along the Central, Western, Greater Accra and Volta regions with the involvement of players, officials and community youth.
