Welcome

We are very excited to be hosting the 27th edition of the Ghana University Sports Association (GUSA) Games in November 2022.

We are committed in hosting a memorable Games that benefits the status of the best university in Ghana and also to showcase the talented student athletes that are been nurtured in all the fourteen (14) participating universities.

It is our goal to continue to imbibe in our student athletes and all stakeholders the morals, values and ethics of sports. The theme for the Games “Harnessing sporting talents of students for national development through healthy competition using science and technology” was carefully chosen to drum home the far reaching possibility that Sports and Education are one of the powerful tools for empowering the youth and causing positive social change.

The LOC made up of industry players across diverse fields of study is working tirelessly to ensure you have a wonderful experience on the campus of KNUST.
