Bofoakwa Tano have been in the wilderness since 2006/07 when they got relegated from the Premier League. They have impressed in this season’s League following an outstanding run of form that has resulted in 18 wins, 4 defeats and 3 draws and head into the weekend as commanding leaders of Zone One B. There is plenty to play for when they clash with Young Apostles at the Coronation Park on Sunday.
