GCB Bank gallant men were Prince Ablor, Kojo Essel (Chairman) Daniel George Leo and Nelson Boadi while Barimah Kwasi, Jackson, Aliba and Bonze performed wonderfully on the Cape Coast side.

In a pre-match interview with the captains of the various clubs, Mr. Kwadwo Asare, Kwasi Barimah and Kojo Essel, were optimistic of winning the games but their prime objective was to enable members of the three clubs to relax after busy schedules on working days.

The Vice Chairman of the Koforidua Sports Club, Mr. Kwame Djangba (Senior) said the event was aimed at enabling members to exercise their bodies a little and also fraternize after a hectic working day.

He appealed to the people of Ghana, especially workers of both government, self employed or private to take time off their busy schedules to exercise a little to enable them work long before their retirement.
