A final day in Kisumu and of the trip was a festival day, but unlike in Nakuru we also had some schools to visit. A stop at Obinju to start with gave us some more valuable evaluation data as well as fitting in our usual four stations in the smallest area yet. TLTBG, alongside local coach George and the games teacher, particularly enjoyed convincing the head teacher that the whole session would fit into the children\u2019s break time as she was unwilling to let them miss class. I\u2019m pretty sure that after an energetic CWB session productivity in the remaining classes of the day would be higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We squeezed in a visit to an orphanage after picking up some\nflour, sugar, detergent and other supplies and had a guided tour before the children\narrived back from school at lunch time. Sian made an introduction for the team and\nthen we headed back to Kisumu Secondary to set up the festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The festival saw a mixture of pairs cricket between 6 boys teams and three girls teams and a rapid fire competition between three schools. It was great to include so many different schools and to include a range of ages from 6 \u2013 16 being able to take part in the same festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As soon as the festival got underway, a small group went to\nKossawo school on the edged of Manyatta slums where Derrick has been coaching football\nbut through CWB wants to introduce cricket as well. With over 9000 students and\nonly 3 coaches it could have been a tough gig, but the well-organised and\nsupportive teachers chose one stream of class 4 children and somehow created a\nforce field so that the spectators kept a sensible distance whilst on break\ntime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A couple of sundowners overlooking the sunset on Lake Victoria sealed the trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
