The 2026 KGL Foundation Inter-Regional U17 Colts Championship has already established itself as a tournament of intensity and ambition, and Matchday Three promises to deliver even more drama. Brong Ahafo and Prempeh Elite Academy, the two most formidable sides in their respective groups, will both seek to extend their unbeaten records on Tuesday, October 6, as the competition enters its decisive phase.

Brong Ahafo, who sit atop Group B with a flawless six points from two matches, will host Elite Academy BIG Boss at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence. The match, scheduled for 8am on the FIFA pitch, represents a crucial test for the Ashanti-based side, which will need to assert its dominance if it hopes to secure a third consecutive victory. Meanwhile, defending champions Ashanti Region will face Eastern Region on the betPawa pitch, their campaign hinging on whether they can replicate the form that saw them lift the trophy last season.

Prempeh Elite Academy, meanwhile, remain undefeated atop Group A after collecting all six points from their first two games. Their next challenge comes against Volta Region at 10am, a fixture that will determine whether they can maintain their commanding lead. The stakes are equally high for Upper West Region, who will face Western Region in another Group B clash, while Upper East Region and unbeaten Greater Accra lock horns at 2pm in a potential title decider. The day concludes with Northern Region taking on Central Region at the GFA Technical Centre, a match that could have significant implications for the group standings.

With the knockout stages looming, every point now carries weight. Brong Ahafo and Prempeh Elite Academy’s ability to convert early momentum into sustained success will be the difference between securing a place in the latter stages and falling short. The tournament, sponsored by the KGL Foundation, continues to showcase the depth of Ghanaian youth football, with each match offering a glimpse into the future stars of the game.
