Baby Cricket Cranes head coach Emmanuel Isaneez is hoping the team's bond will even grow stronger as they seek qualification for a fourth World Cup in Tanzania.

The coach introduced ‘the coach’s drink,’ on Thursday afternoon after David Katende, the Deputy Secretary General of the National Council of Sports, officially flagged off the team to depart Uganda.

“The coach’s drink is something new in the set-up, introduced to share passion and love within the team as they bond on the final day before we travel to Tanzania,” Isaneez tweeted using his official handle.

“This will always symbolise togetherness from top to bottom in the team’s settings,” he added.

Uganda, who have already arrived in Tanzania, hope to replicate previous appearances in the 2004, 2006 and 2022 editions, as the 2024 edition will be held in Sri Lanka.

Six teams, including hosts Tanzania, Uganda, Nigeria, Namibia, Sierra Leone and Kenya, will face off for one slot in the World Cup.

The Baby Cranes squad, which has six players from the 2022 edition, open their campaign on Sunday, 23rd July, against Namibia.

The Squad

Fahad Mutagana, Pius Oloka, Ronald Omara, Yunusi Sowobi, Musa Majid, Nyero Jonathan, Gerald Olipa, Balidawa Ali, Joseph Baguma, Brian Asaba, Conrad Lubwama, Abdul Aziz Tandia, Jaffer Ochaya, Anas Baig.
