Excerpt: Dawu Youngstars are a now defunct Ghanaian association football team from Dawu, a small town in the eastern region of Ghana who were founded in 1987. The club last competed in the Ghanaian Premier League in 2002, but financial problems after relegation that season have meant the club has not since returned to Ghana's top flight. Dawu Youngstars was founded in 1987 by Seth Yeboah, a businessman from Dawu. Yeboah became the club's owner, and later built the team the Dawu Sports Stadium to play in, which has a capacity of 10,000.

In October 2010, Youngstars founder Seth Yeboah stated that he wanted to revive the club to provide employment for young people in Dawu. Dawu qualified for the 1992 West African Club Championship just five years after they had bee
