The inaugural ‘Friday Tennis Explosion’, a tournament intended to keep active tennis players engaged in action all year round is commencing this Friday at the Kampala Lugogo Tennis Courts.
Two players will be battling for every week throughout the year (for 54 weeks) and the winner of the evening bags Ug.Shs 500,000 instantly on top of a crate of beer.
“Everything is in place. The entertainment, the refreshments and definitely the winner’s purse of Ug. shs 100,000 is ready to be given to the first winner”, Arthur Segawa, the manager, Lugogo Center Courts remarked.
An Instant Ug. Shs 100,000 cash prize and a crate of beer awaits every winner of the newly invented Friday Tennis Explosion, a fresh event on the sporting arena of Uganda.
Arthur Segawa, the Manager, Lugogo Center Courts launched this event last Thursday morning at the event launch held at the tennis premises in Kampala.
For a start, it will be an event for only men with proposals to involve the female gender in the subsequent years. In the opening game of the year long series, Dean Kibrige is set to battle Moses Otiti in a game that pundits say can go either way.
A lump sum of Ug. Shs 15M is earmarked for this entire budding project meant to boost the competitiveness of tennis among the players.
The money will facilitate the winners’ prizes (cash of 100,000/= every week and a beer crate), refreshments for players, first aid kit, Equipment (balls and nets), Umpires, Ball boys and other officials.
“There will be ultimate entertainment with lots of drinks and eats, so the center court will be the place to be every Friday”, Segawa said.
The elite and amateur players are all welcome to play in this event to ensure competition as it will be a winner takes it all event.
See you there…..
