The Tariq Lamptey U-15 Cup, happening at the McDan Astro Turf in Accra Labadi, a peri-urban town in Ghana's capital Accra, has been heavily funded by the Premier League right-back.
Four teams are competing for the grand prize and other prizes provided by the organisers, led by Tariq Lamptey, who was unable to attend due to his club obligations.
This is the second time Lamptey has organised the same event. The Tariq Lamptey Cup was previously held at Cape Coast Stadium the previous year.
Children's in the Ghanaian village of Nuaso, which is close to Odumase Krobo in the Eastern Region, received football equipment from the Tariq Lamptey foundation in 2020.
The former England youth international who's changed his nationality to Ghana was named in Ghana squad for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and made two appearances.
He switched to Ghana earlier this year and made four appearances for Ghana.
