Game One’s loss was a wake-up call for us – Ghana Police coach

Losing in Game One of the 2021 Accra Basketball League (ABL) Women’s Division Playoff Final was a wakeup call for Ghana Police Service Women’s Basketball team according to Team Coach David Sasu.

He said this in an exclusive interview with Basketballghana.com after leading Police to clinch the League title after winning two straight games to turn the series around. Police beat Reformers of Prisons 47-39 in Game 2 and secured the title with a 52-30 win in Game 3.
