Techiman Eleven Wonders FC are a Ghanaian football club from Techiman currently playing in the Ghana Premier League. They play televised home games in the Obuasi Len Clay Sports Stadium in Obuasi.[2]
History
[edit]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
[edit]The club plays their home matches at Ohene Ameyaw Park in Techiman in the Bono East Region,[9][10] but they relocated to the Obuasi Len Clay Sports Stadium for the 2020–21 Ghana Premier League season.[3]
