This training Camp was one of those milestones for the foundation as many of our athletes learnt, unlearnt and relearned much about the Wheelchair Rugby sport. . Its important that @ww_rugby through the president @RichardAllcroft can realise the potential in Africa and support us
We recently conducted a one week wheelchair rugby training camp in Kampala of course with the support of our partners and friends @pauito_11 and Oriol from Catalonia.
Very grateful for the expertise from the duo. Kindly contact us to see how you can support
