Right to Dream Academy have won the gold medal in the prestigious Telly Awards for the documentary US-based striker Francis Atuahene.
In January 2019, the academy premiered the documentary on their graduate who is owned by FC Dallas.
The short film titled 'A Dream Is Born' looked at Atuahene's journey from Techiman to becoming a professional athlete in the Major League Soccer.
The 22-year-old believed his story will serve as a motivation for people not give up on their dreams and work hard to achieve it.
