Lady Cranes under the tutelage of Herbert Wafula and Fred Mudoola are looking good and are raring to go. Intensive fitness sessions with Mudoola have the team faster and fitter than ever before while Wafula has been working on general ball skills and game planning. With just over a week left to the 2nd edition of the CAR 7’s (16th June), Wafula has dropped 4 players and is working with 13 ladies before he makes the final cut to 10. Those dropped were Stella Bakole, Harriet Kayonjo, Stella Kyalikunda and Dorothy Nekesa (all from Thunderbirds).
Wafula is set to travel to Nairobi with the Lady Cranes for the Safari 7’s in Nairobi, Kenya this weekend (9th June). The women’s competition will be a round robin tournament involving Lady Cranes, Kenya 1 and Kenya 2. For this competition, the Ugandan ladies will be missing the services of Frankline Najjumba who is currently in India featuring for the African cricket team (yes, you read right – cricket!) in the women’s Afro – Asia Cricket Cup. Helen Buteme will also not travel with the team due to work commitments.
The travelling squad is, Joan Andika, Sauda Adiru, Winnie Atyang, Rachel Kakaire, Rosenberg Kanyunyuzi, Christine Kizito, Charlotte Mudoola, Mary Nakanyike, Hadija Namuyanja, Asha Ssonko and Ann Tumwine.
