One of the foremost clubs in the western side of Ghana is the"do boys from Sekondi but have thought of knowing the history and meaning of HASAACAS?
Ride with me as I unravel this mystery
The club was formed 90 years ago precisely 1931 by a group of rail workers.
The name Hasaacas came from the railway workers in Sekondi-Takoradi who decided to use the first letters of their names to form the name of the club in 1931, thus H.A.S.A.A.C.A.S.—namely Hammond, Amua Sakyi, Adotei, Allotey, Cann, Adotey and Sackey.
Most of them were supporters of Accra Hearts of Oak but migrated to Sekondi-Takoradi mainly because of their railway work. Amoah Sakyi was a High Court judge and was named as the club board secretary. Cann was also a lawyer by profession.
The name later became Sekondi Hasaacas because the team was based in Sekondi; they decided to use rainbow colors as their original colors because most of the founding members were supporters of Accra Hearts of Oak. After some years, they decided to change the colors because they clashed with the jerseys of Accra Hearts of Oak, who first started using rainbow colors. Hasaacas then decided to use white, green and red as its new colors.
