After their visit to Mbabara for their recruitment and development program last weekend that meant their game against Rockets was postponed, Weatherhead [M] return to league action on Saturday.
Vincent Kasasa’s charges take on Simba looking to cut the gap between themselves and table leaders Kampala Hockey Club Stallions that currently reads 6points.
The 2011 league champions bravely beat defending champions Wananchi 2-0 a fortnight ago in a game they did more defending as compared to their attacking play to secure their first three points of the campaign.
It was a memorable victory given their unwanted record against Wananchi, and was one that uplifted the camp having suffered a 2-1 defeat to the Stallions on the opening day of the season.
They go into tomorrow’s game buoyed hoping to continue with their ways as they look to register their second win and reduce the gap atop.
Simba savored their start to the new season last month. They comfortably beat Rockets 5-2 and led the table standings on the first weekend, but on game week two a couple of weeks ago against Bernard Bwire’s men, they were the second best team as they suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat.
Simba will hope to return to winning ways and like their Saturday opponents, Ali Mohammad’s team will look to reduce the point gap between them and the table leaders
Both Simba and Weatherhead are on three points collected from two games, but Weatherhead sit second on goal difference.
