Ugandan netball fans have landed a historic opportunity to watch the She Cranes make their third appearance at the Netball World Cup slated for next year in Liverpool, England.

They say, ‘you cannot look a gift horse in the mouth', so it is imperative that fans act in haste if they want to watch their favourite stars in England.

The last edition in Australia denied fans the chance to soak up the experience at netball's biggest stage.

The International Netball Federation (INF) in partnership with the local body Uganda Netball Federation (UNF) has this time availed a total of 120 match tickets to fans for the preliminary stage.

In the three preliminary fixtures, Uganda will play hosts England in their opening game before facing Samoa and Scotland in the other group D fixtures.

This therefore means that a fan will need to part with about sh1.2m to purchase all the three group stage tickets but at a first come, first serve basis according to She Cranes team manager Jocelyn Ucanda.

"We have only been given 40 tickets for every preliminary stage game and one is supposed to buy a ticket for all the three games," she said.

She added, "However, what people should put in mind is that the ticketing is done online and the fee is none refundable especially for those who could have been denied a visa for different reasons."

Ucanda later advised fans to fill the rightful information and attach copies of the match tickets when applying for Visa's so as to avoid being denied access.

"All you need is to attach copies of the match tickets, accommodation details and other requirements to the visa application form for you to stand chances of being approved so that your ticket doesn't be wasted," Ucanda said.
