Ghanaian High Jump duo Regina Yeboah and Nana Yaa Abigail Kwarteng have secured their ticket to participate in the 2016 20th African Senior Athletics Championships slated from 22 to 26 June 2016 in Durban, South Africa.
Yeboah especially put up a very impressive showing last Saturday at the third edition of the Ghana Athletics Association Championship held at the El-Wak Stadium after becoming the second locally-based athlete to qualify for the Athletics Championships after clearing a height of 1.76 metres.
All other participants in the second National Ranking Championship left the El Wak stadium in disappointment mood t as they failed to meet the qualifying standards for the 2016 Olympic Games and the African Athletics Championships.
More championships are expected to take place from now until the Rio Olympics kicks start in August and so far only two Ghanaian have already qualified for the mega sporting event with qualification still ongoing across the various disciplines.
