Sema Michael is a former Ghana Beach Soccer captain
Ghana’s most decorated beach soccer club, Sunset Sports Keta, has officially announced the appointment of former Ghana Beach Soccer National Team captain, Sema Michael Sedziafa, as the club’s new head coach.
This transition marks a significant moment in the club’s history, bringing back one of its most iconic figures to lead the next chapter.
Sema Michael, widely regarded as one of the greatest players in Ghanaian beach soccer history, returns to the club where he made his name both locally and internationally.
As a veteran of the sport, he holds the record for the most caps with the national team and led Sunset Sports Keta to Ghana’s only international beach soccer title – the prestigious African Club Challenge at Copa Lagos 2019.
His appointment follows a strategic restructuring within the club’s technical department.
Coach Julius Caesar Beckley, who has steered the club through several successful seasons, has been elevated to the role of Technical Director, where he is expected to oversee broader developmental and tactical frameworks.
Club Chairman, Dzidodo Ruben Adjahoe, praised the move saying: “Sema Michael’s leadership, discipline, and deep understanding of the game make him the perfect person to take up this role. We are excited to have him lead the team he once captained with such pride and success.”
Sema has been steadily pursuing a career in coaching and football development.
His appointment signals a bold new era for Sunset Sports as they aim to reclaim dominance in the domestic league and make a return to continental competition.
Speaking about his appointment, Coach Sema said: “It’s an honour to return to the club that shaped my career. My goal is to build on the great foundation laid by Coach Beckley and inspire the next generation to believe that anything is possible.”
Sunset Sports Keta is set to begin preseason training under the new technical structure, with fans and players alike optimistic about the fresh leadership and vision.
