ESG Sports

Evolution Sports Group presents a unique opportunity for young people, families, and diaspora communities to travel to Ghana — not simply to play football, but to reconnect with culture, history, and purpose.

This is not sports tourism.
This is a return.

Using football as the bridge, participants experience elite training, competitive fixtures, and cultural immersion across Accra, Kumasi, and Cape Coast — walking the paths of history while building confidence, pride, and global perspective.

✈️ TRAVEL MADE SIMPLE (SELLS CONFIDENCE)

How Far Is Ghana?

Closer than you think.

• London to Accra: approx. 6 hours 30 minutes
• New York / East Coast USA: approx. 9–10 hours
• Direct flights available from London Heathrow & Gatwick
• Same time zone as the UK during winter months

No jet lag drama. No culture shock chaos.

⚽ THE FOOTBALL EXPERIENCE

Participants receive a structured, professional football programme designed by experienced coaches with UK and Ghanaian expertise.

Football Includes:

• Daily training sessions with local academy coaches
• Competitive matches vs Ghanaian clubs & academies
• Coach education and cultural exchange sessions
• Community-based football events
• Leadership, discipline, and mindset development

Football is delivered with respect — not extraction.
We build relationships, not photo ops.

🧭 THE CULTURAL JOURNEY

📍 ACCRA – MODERN GHANA & DIASPORA ENERGY

Accra represents today's Ghana — vibrant, global, creative, and confident.

This is where the diaspora feels at home.

Cape Coast is emotional, powerful, and essential.
