History
Medeama Football Club was established in 2008 and began playing in the Ghana Division Three League. [2] In 2010, the club failed in its initial attempt to qualify for the Ghana Premier League. [2] This led to the purchasing of the defunct Kessben FC the same year. [2] The licensing of the club was fully completed in December 2010, and the club was renamed Medeama Sporting Club in January 2011. [3] The base of the Kessben club was moved from Abrankese in the Ashanti Region of Ghana to Tarkwa in the Western Region of Ghana. [3]
