“You cannot climb a mountain without knowing how and where to pass to reach the top. It’s the reason we have decided to call on board all those who ever took part in the sport,†explained Agonzibwa at the inaugural press briefing ever since her executive was voted into power in July this year.
The launch of the event set for October 1 at Sports Beach in Entebbe was also attended by handball legend and founder of the local sport in 1972, Nicholas Onegi, who also promised support.
“I believe they are on the right track now. I will do all I can to see that the sport reaches a competitive level like it was in our days,†Onegi said.
