A two-day sports leadership conference has been held at Nob View Hotel in Ntinda with the Uganda Olympics Committee (UOC) and Athletes In Action through a partnership.
The main aim was to impact leadership skills to federation heads, pass on physiological skills to coaches and players.
Well, not many shunned but over 150 to part from different disciplines ranging from rugby, wood ball, athletics, cycling, badminton and baseball.
“We have learnt a lot here,” John Baptist Kateregga, a Uganda Wood ball Federation official told Kawowo
“At least, we have to put the new skills into practice if our sports’ standards are to go up.”
Baseball player Aaron Kirya too picked a few lessons too.
“It’s not all about being successful as a sportsman but also having a value even after the end of your career.”
Athletes In Action is an international Christian sports organisation that use sport as a means of unification. They have been involved in hosting outreach events at the Super Bowl, Final Four, NBA All-Star Games, World Cup and the Olympics.
