Suubi - Events

Our fourth annual Suubi Primary School's Sports Tournament, that has been running since March 24th, saw 18 primary schools from all over Kisekka Sub-County, Lwengo District compete. The schools were divided in to four different groups, comprising of 4 or 5 schools from similar areas. Each of these groups participated in preliminary rounds, held on four different days, at various school playgrounds including Buusubi, Happy Hours, Kyembazzi and Namagongo. All teams from each group fought hard for the right to make it through to the quarter final round at Kankamba and ultimately through to the finals that were held at Namagongo today.

There was much excitement this morning when the day began with semi rounds played in all events. Supporters from each school got right behind their players as they fought hard to make it through to the afternoon finals matches.
