Kids awards
SOCCER
The Kids League Lira and Arua will host their awards ceremonies today to mark the end of their sporting seasons. In Arua, the event starts at 9am with a procession through Arua town followed by the final league games and later the presentation. The league in Arua is sponsored by Stanbic Bank, General Machinery and Celtel.
Disabled day
The National Union of Disabled Persons of Uganda (NUDIPU) on Thursday organised a Tri-Cycles rally for the disabled in Gulu. The rally was flagged off by Gulu district speaker Martin Mapenduzi, 28 disabled persons participated and rode through the streets as the public cheered.
Gesa focused
Cyclist Asuman Gesa is out to defend the national championship on Sunday in the last event of the cycling calendar. The Jinja-based rider is looking for maximum 100 points for winning the race organised by Oasis club that flags off at Iganga sports ground. Gesa has 630 points.
Regatta on
LAERKE Garvey will seek to end the year on a high note at the Monthly Mug sailing battle due tomorrow at Kaazi. Garvey who won last year’s season-ending title is hoping he can overcome challenges from 15 sailors at Kaazi in order to score a final win of 2006 and retain the Mug. Steve Reynolds, who claimed last month’s Helms Man sailing trophy, will be the biggest threat to Garvey’s hopes.
