Approximately 1,346 tickets have been secured by the Ghanaian government for selected supporters’ groups, government officials and other institutions to enable the to attend the 2010 World Cup.

The tickets are for Ghana’s three preliminary round matches at the summer showpiece in South Africa.

The Ministry of Youth and Sports invested close to $120,000 to buy the tickets, as four supporters unions failed to raise the needed funds to acquire match tickets. According to Graphic Sports, the Millennium Supporters' Union was the only group that managed to purchase 633 tickets for the Ghana fixtures.

The government is looking for much greater funding to finance the trip to South Africa for nearly 450 Ghanaian football enthusiasts.
