Ghana's U20 men's and women's volleyball teams finished second at the African U21 Volleyball Championships.
The victory of Ghana's U20 teams comes almost one week after they embarked on a 72-hour road journey to Niger for the Championships.
Ghana's women started their campaign versus Nigeria, in a 0-3 defeat, but rallied on to beat Benin and Niger to book a final place, where they lost to Nigeria.
The U20 men overcame Benin in 3 straight sets in their first game of the competition.
They followed it up with another dominant win, this time over Cote d'Ivoire.
However in the final, they eventually tasted defeat in the competition for the first time - to the same opponents - in a game Ghana Volleyball officials have concerns with.
"In the men's encounter (versus Niger) it was a deliberate act to get us out of the way," George Tettey, Ghana Volleyball president told Joy Sports.
"The French bloc will not want both trophies to go to English-speaking countries. Both officials in the final matches were French officials and their decisions were so weird.
"They decided to re-register four senior side players when the competition had already taken off. It is against the rules of CAVB, but strangely enough, they permitted it."
