In a ground breaking of events, Mukono Cricket Community will visit Soroti Cricket Academy for the first time.
This visit comes at a moment when Mukono Cricket has been actively organizing tours; over the past two years, they have visited the Northerns Cricket Hub but were eager to explore a new destination.
Both teams have been preparing extensively, with the Mukono Cricket team undergoing a 14-day training camp while Soroti Cricket Academy has also been in intensive training.
Boarding the Mt. St. Henry’s School bus, the Mukono team departed for Soroti today.
At the time of this report, the team is safe and sound in Soroti, ready for their opening matches tomorrow.
This tour was initiated after discussions between the chairmen, Simon Kintu of Mukono and Felix Musana of Soroti, on a program that would benefit female players
We need playing time for our players, and we also aim to foster strong relationships with all cricket hubs as we continue to pursue excellence in sports and other fields
said Simon Kintu.
Felix Musana added
We had to go out of our way to mobilize resources for this memorable tour. It’s a great feat for our academy, and we are happy to host the Mukono Cricket Community
Mukono Cricket Community will field one team, while Soroti Cricket Academy will have two teams: SCA-A and SCA-B. Due to the difference in team numbers, Mukono will rotate players during the matches
