6th Woodball World Cup:
September 5 – 11, 2014
At Luneng Sanya Bay Sports Center, China
Barely 24 hours after the Chinese Embassy extended a helping hand to the Uganda Wood ball world cup bound team, Bank of Uganda has joined the sponsorship bandwagon.
Bank of Uganda has boosted the preparations of World Cup bound National Woodball Team with US$4,800 worth of tickets for Apio Agnes, Osire William, and Ssennyondo Godwin Nakaana.
The trio are players with Bank of Uganda Woodball Club.
This comes at a time when Apio Agnes and Ssennyondo Godwin Nakaana cemented their lead at Corporate Woodball women’s and men’s table ranking of respectively.
Apio has won the corporate women’s Shield thrice and Godwin won the men’s shield twice at the four Corporate Woodball Circuits held so far.
Osire William lies 2nd in the men’s point rankings behind teammate Godwin.
This sponsorship leaves Uganda Woodball Federation (UWbF) with a deficit of $ 21, 560 to send a team of 24 to China at Luneng Sanya Bay Sports Centre, China.
At least $ 39415 was originally budgeted for.
Training will continue on Saturday, August 23, 2014 at MUBS – Nakawa starting at 9am.
The final Team is expected to be named thereafter.
