Youth Sports
As part of an unintended benefits of creating a community of readers, leaders, competitors, we realized that sports had to be another platform of such organized competitiveness, that would enhance other values.
Hence as of April 2023, the Mirembe Words of Wisdom boast of having 33 schools, spread across several districts of Uganda, that have over the last 4-5 years progressively improved their capacity to compete at the sports level. Sports includes both boys’ soccer/football and girls’ netball. Such competition activates the local communities and indeed energizes the sense of community which is indeed verifiable by what we have seen and witnessed on the soccer and netball competitive grounds.
In 2023, 28 schools were engaged in competitive sports activities including girls and boys. The ultimate winners of the sports tournament were recipients of the Mirembe Sports Cup.
