The tournament tees off with the official practice round on 27th November at the Tazegzout Golf Course in Agadir and will climax on 30th November with 54 holes played.

State minister for sports Hon. Peter Ogwang flagged off the team at the Uganda Golf Club, Kampala on Friday, 22nd November 2024.

“Go and represent the country gallantly. We are proud of you and believe in yourselves,” said Ogwang.

Captain Peace Kabasweka, Martha Babirye and the long-hitting Meron Kyomugisha are the three players on the team.

These will be joined by the head coach Flavia Namakula, team manager Gloria Mbaguta, Dorren Mwesigye (president of Uganda Ladies Golf Union) and Wendy Angudeyo (captain, Uganda Golf Club).

“We have prepared very well with good training at the Lugazi Hills and Country Club as well as the Lake Victoria Serena Golf Resort and Spa courses. These players have been carrying their own golf kits and we tackled every aspect of the game. We have the right yardages for the course in Agadir and we are ready for action,” head coach Namakula stated.

Kabasweka, Uganda’s captain, expressed readiness for the All-Africa Championship.

“We are ready mentally and physically for the tournament in Morocco. We thank the coach and the leadership of Uganda Ladies Golf Union for the support”, Kabasweka revealed.

There are now 21 countries confirmed for this tournament.

Last year, Uganda finished fourth in the same tournament in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.
