<\/a><\/p>\nThere seems to be one Kwik Cricket set in every town we visit. But in Fort Portal we saw the locals making their own rough hewn cricket bats – a sign of real enthusiasm for the game. Yusuf showed off one of the bats for us.<\/p>\n We worked with 135 primary school children in the morning – concentrating on getting the local coaches leading the sessions. We are having beautiful weather in Fort Portal – it’s very hot.<\/p>\n We were pleased to present the last of the “Redmile Bats” to the local schools. Each school got a couple of bats each – they were delighted. <\/p>\n Darren and Yusuf went to the local radio station, Voice of Toro, for their Saturday afternoon sports show. They talked for 20 minutes about Cricket Without Boundaries work – and then were asked to stay on and talk Premier League football (which is the number one sports obsession in Uganda). Yusuf has been asked to go back today for another Radio slot with coaches and children – the CWB team seem to be a hit with the local media wherever we go.<\/p>\n Neil is a qualified Basketball coach – so he offered his services to helps the team at Nyakasura during his lunch hours. The court is like nothing he has ever seen. He had to clear the court of large rocks before the start of play – not something he has to do much on the sprung wooden flooring back home!<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
