Tanzania coming

By James Bakama TANZANIA has become the fifth foreign entry in the inaugural Eastern African youth championships scheduled for June 8 and 9 at Mandela Stadium,Namboole. Uganda Amateur Athletics Federation (UAAF) secretary Patrick Okanya said the Tanzanians will field a team of 16 athletes. Athletics giants Kenya will also be represented by 16 in the competition that has also received entries from Eritrea, Djibouti and Ethiopia. Uganda, fielding a team of 60 athletes, will have its final trial tomorrow at Kyambogo. A trial was staged last weekend at the same venue for a similar purpose but was not conclusive because of absence of athletes from leading athletics districts Kapchorwa and Lira. A refresher course for officials is meanwhile set for Sunday at Lugogo. Ends
