Developing rugby at ‘the source of the Nile’
Uganda has a proud rugby heritage, with the sport’s drum beating loudest in and around the capital, Kampala. A seasonal club league provides playing opportunities for men and women, and Uganda fields competitive national teams at 7s and 15s, to rival its neighbour, Kenya. In an effort to grow and develop the game in an area sometimes overshadowed by stronger regions, Bhubesi Pride Foundation continues to work with primary schools and an orphanage, The SPEC Foundation, in Jinja, on the Nile, 80km east of Kampala.
Watch a short film about the SPEC Foundation, see volunteer coaches in action in Jinja (and first, Nairobi) and meet Damian, the charity’s lead expedition driver
By facilitating an extended expedition volunteer program every February, we aim to build on our contributions to youth rugby in Jinja, collaborating with the key Ugandan rugby stakeholders to enable increased player participation through an improved program structure and coach education.
