Addressing them, Mr Iddrisu reminded the athletes that they needed to be at their very best to compete with the best in the world.

"You have to be disciplined and listen to your coaches. They are the ones to guide you to the top. Keep working hard and when the success come, we'll all be there to celebrate you."
