The MTN FA Cup Committee has outlined a week-long programme to the final this Sunday.

It includes a trophy tour of the Brong Ahafo Region and Eastern Region, the home regions of the finalists as part of the build-up to the final.

The trophy tour starts in the Eastern Region on Saturday, 27 August with a visit to the Nkawkaw chief's palace, where the trophy would be received and displayed for public viewing.

On Sunday, the tour moves to Bechem in the Brong Ahafo Region where the giant trophy will be showcased to the chiefs and people before returning to Accra the following day for display at the MTN head office in Accra for a photo session.

The trophy would be transported by sea from Accra to Mankessim the following day to be paraded through the principal streets of Mankessim and later those of Elmina.

Bechem and Okwawu would have separate training sessions at the Cape Coast Stadium on September 2.

The MTN FA Cup final will be preceded by a curtain raiser between Ampem Darkoa and Hasaacas Ladies to decide the winner of the National Women's League.
