As part of the organization procedure for the forthcoming 2021 Africa Beach Soccer Qualifier match when Sand Cranes hosts Ghana , the Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) has embarked on developing a permanent home .
A team of officials led by the FUFA Deputy CEO-Football, Decolas Kiiza, FUFA Club Licensing Manager, Ivan Kintu Bayige and UBSA Vice President, Peter Seguya had a tour around the facility at the FUFA Technical Centre .
This will be the venue to host the qualifier match against Ghana on 27th March 2021.
FUFA deputy CEO-Football, Kiiza expressed that the facility is in good shape and ready for use .
“I believe that few thing are remaining and will be ready for the game against Ghana and I expect we shall be able to get positive results.” Said Kiiza.
Ali Mwebe, the FUFA Football Development Director said that the facility is still being worked on so that players find it conducive both during training and on matchdays .
Vice chairman of Uganda Beach Soccer Association, Peter Seguya applauded FUFA for the support given towards the development of Beach Soccer in the country.
“It would be hard to find a playing surface in this country like this one. We have a challenge that many of the beaches we have been using were all affected by the raise of the water levels but this is timely and we hope it will help to host tournaments.” He noted.
The Sand Cranes will lock horns with Ghana for the AFCON Beach soccer Qualifier contest slated for Saturday 27th March and return leg away on 9-10th April.
