GAFA Championship Participants (14): Hearts of Oak (Accra) Great Argonauts (Accra) Great Olympics (Accra) Standfast (Accra) Mysterious Dwarfs (Cape Coast) Venomous Vipers (Cape Coast) Eleven Wise (Sekondi) Hasaacas (Sekondi) Evertons (Obuasi) Hearts of Oak (Obuasi) Asante Kotoko (Kumasi) Cornerstones (Kumasi) Dynamos (Kumasi) Evergreens (Kumasi) This was the inaugural attempt to organise a national league, for which the above 14 clubs were invited. However, it was boycotted by the 4 Kumasi clubs (Asante Kotoko, Cornerstones, Dynamos and Evergreens), which were then suspended by the GAFA (Ghana Amateur Football Association). The league thus started with the 10 remaining clubs, all from the southern part of the country. The 4 rebellious clubs succeeded into getting other clubs to join them, until eventually only two were left, Hearts of Oak (Accra) and Eleven Wise (Sekondi), which were declared gold and silver medalists respectively.
