Meeting the Boss

Another good day in Kampala.  We started off this morning by meeting Ivan Kakembo, Director of the Uganda Youth Soccer Academy who then took us to the Nelson Mandela Stadium to watch a training session with the national team.  Really great seeing the professionals at work and we were fortunate afterwards to meet up for a chat with Uganda coach and ex-Glasgow Rangers striker Bobby Williamson.  We also met a few of the players, including Hassan Masswa.

We then had another training session with some of the kids from Lilly School, which went very well.  Some of the kids are very talented and have been very pleased to get out of school and play a bit of footie - how weird!  This afternoon some of the group then headed to Luteete School to check out the area for the location of a possible basketball court.  Today has been a bit more relaxed but very productive.  We are just relaxing this evening for a full-on day of training tomorrow.
