History

They were promoted to the top flight of Ghanaian soccer for the first time in 2017 after finishing in first place in Zone 1 of the Division One League.[3] They immediately set about fundraising in an attempt to avoid relegation.[4]

Their first official Premier League signing was veteran defender Idrissu Yahaya.[5] In their first top-flight match, they held 20-time champion Hearts of Oak to a surprising 1–1 draw, with Alex Asamoah scoring their maiden goal.[6] During the 2020–21 Ghana Premier League season, one of their stand out performers Salifu Ibrahim was signed by Accra Hearts of Oak.[7][8]

Grounds

The club plays their home matches at Ohene Ameyaw Park in Techiman in the Bono Region,[9][10] but they relocated to the Obuasi Len Clay Sports Stadium for the 2020–21 Ghana Premier League season.[3]
