The 2016 Ghanaian Premier League was the 60th season of top professional association football in Ghana. The domestic league season began on 21 January and concluded on 18 September with Wa All Stars winning their first league title. Only the matches between Asante Kotoko and the Hearts of Oak attracted attendances above 10,000.[1]
The Ghanaian Premier League comprises 16 sides, of which the bottom three - Hasaacas, New Edubiase and Techiman City - will be relegated to the Division One. In December 2016, Dreams FC was demoted from the Ghana Premier League due to an anomaly with the registration of a player. The decision was taken by the Ghana Football Association's Disciplinary Committee.[2] [3] [4]
