Learn about Accra Majestics Sports Academy — our mission, vision, history and commitment to developing athletes and transforming lives through rugby and sports in Ghana.
Accra Majestics Sports Academy (AMSA) is a volunteer-driven, youth-focused multi-sports community based in Accra, Ghana. We harness the power of sports to empower young people especially those from underserved communities with purpose, discipline and opportunity. Through structured training, mentorship and community engagement, we aim to build not only athletes but also leaders for a better tomorrow.
📖 OUR STORY
Founded on 10th July 2021 by Rachel Ankomah and Khalil Njoya, AMSA started as a rugby league club with a bold vision: to create a platform where young athletes could thrive. In October 2023, we rebranded as a full-fledged multi-sport academy, expanding our mission to support youth across multiple disciplines, including rugby, flag football and other community sports initiatives.
We offer youth of all ages access to organized sports, life skills training and mentorship. What sets AMSA apart is that we are entirely volunteer driven: with no paid staff, no permanent facility and limited sponsorships.
What fuels us is passion, resilience and a relentless drive to make a difference.
Through sport, we promote:
• Discipline
• Leadership
• Community Transformation
• Personal Growth
Every child deserves a chance to succeed on and off the field.
