NATIONAL rugby coach Yayiro Kasasa has identified over 40 players in Lira as having potential to play for the country.
Kasasa picked on 15 at Comboni College, while the others were from various schools in the district.
The coach recently visited schools in northern Uganda. He was accompanied there by northern region development officer Andrew Erach.
The visit was a follow up on the recent course organised by the Uganda Rugby Union (URU) that drew participants from Apac, Gulu and hosts Lira.
The two officials visited Lango College, Lira Integrated SS, St. Katherine Girls SS, Canon Lawrence College and Comboni College.
* Former England captain Lawrence Dallaglio has backed Wales to win the final game of the Six Nations championship on Saturday and deny Ireland their first grand slam for 61 years.
Wales, who recorded their 10th grand slam last season, need to beat Ireland by 13 points at the Millennium stadium to retain the title.
Dallaglio said that Ireland and Wales had been the most consistent sides in the championship.
