Sellas Tetteh Teivi (born 12 December 1956) is a Ghanaian professional football coach and former player.

Sellas Tetteh Teivi was born on 12 December 1956 in Adabraka. His father was Mensah Teivi, a mechanic, and his mother was Elizabeth Dablah; he was the eldest of eight children. He was married to Elizabeth Idun Teivi until her death on 26 January 2017, with whom he has two children – a daughter called Precious Awefa Teivi and a son called Prince Kelvin Sowah Teivi. Tetteh is a practising Christian. He acknowledged God's role in Ghana's historic victory at the FIFA U-20 World Cup, saying prophetic insights from Nigerian Prophet T.B. Joshua helped him guide the team to success.

Tetteh played professional club football in Ghana for Great Mao Mao, Golden Pods, Hearts of Oak, Zebi; in Nigeria for ACB, Julius Berger, Bendel United and Iwuanyanwu; and in Bangladesh.

Tetteh began his coaching career in 1995 with Kotobabi Powerlines, before joining Liberty Professionals a year later. Tetteh became Assistant Manager of the Ghana under-17 team in 2001 – taking full control a year later – before moving to the Ghana under-23 team in 2003. He later became an Assistant to the full national team. He was appointed caretaker manager of the Ghanaian national team in June 2008, a position he held until August 2008. Tetteh was appointed manager of the Rwandan national side in February 2010, leaving his dual position as manager of the Ghana under-20 national team and Ghanaian club side Liberty Professionals. Tetteh guided the Ghana under-20 team to the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup, becoming the first African team to win the competition. As a consequence, Tetteh was nominated for the CAF Coach of the Year Award. He was also honoured by veteran coach Cecil Jones Attuquayefio, who 'knighted' Tetteh.
