UCC-UTAG Family Day Out Attracts Heavy Patronage

The University of Cape Coast (UCC) branch of the University Teachers Association of Ghana (UTAG), successfully organised its highly anticipated annual Family Day out for its members to spend time together and socialise.

Clad in their branded T-shirts, the University teachers thrilled spectators with dazzling performances in games like seven-aside football, oware, ludo, draughts, table tennis, musical chairs as well as a dance contest.
