RUGBY LEAGUE

FEDERATION GHANA

Welcome to the home of Rugby League in Ghana. Here you will find all information related to Rugby League and the development of the game across the nation since its inception in 2012. Alongside the game's rich HISTORY, Rugby League has been heavily supported by the European Rugby League and International Rugby League. Governed by the Rugby League Federation Ghana (RLFG) we look after all aspects of the game across the country and its positive progression to date.

Hanetf are our long standing supporters through Hector and Sara Giwa-McNeil. Not only are Hanetf the proud sponsors of our National Team (the Leopards) but the resource given to the game by Hector and Sara has been contributing to the development of the sport in the nation for over 10 years.
