Despite these challenges, the market has potential for growth through increased investments and marketing efforts.
Customer preferences:
With a growing interest in sports and an increasing number of international tournaments being hosted in Ghana, the countrys baseball market has seen a rise in popularity and demand for media coverage.

In terms of cultural factors, baseball may not have as strong of a following as other traditional sports such as football (soccer) and basketball.

Additionally, regulatory restrictions on foreign ownership and investment may also play a role in shaping the baseball media market in Ghana.
