‘’The Executive Council of the Ghana Football Association believes the introduction of the Super Cup at the Division One level gives players more games to play to develop their careers and the mini tournament will continue for the next season with the aim of giving additional incentives to clubs and players to prepare them for the new football season’’ he added.

The 2023 edition of the Division One League Super Cup is scheduled for the Dr. Kwame Kyei Sports complex from Friday, August 18 to Friday September 1, 2023.
