Namaisi’s Long Throw-Ins: The Unsung Hero of Kataka’s Season

Steven Namaisi, the steadfast captain of Mbale-based Big League side Kataka, has emerged as the standout player amidst the club’s disappointing season. Despite Kataka’s missed opportunity for promotion to the top division, Namaisi’s remarkable contributions shone through, particularly in his role as a right back.

Throughout the season, Namaisi played a pivotal role in over 75% of Kataka’s 12 victories, showcasing his prowess in both scoring and assisting goals. Notably, he directly contributed to 16 of Kataka’s 27 goals in the league, scoring once and providing 15 assists, with his trademark throw-in deliveries from the flanks proving to be a game-changer.

Namaisi’s long throw-ins, likened to the legendary Rory Delap’s, have been a source of dread for opposing defenders. One defender candidly admitted a preference for defending corner kicks over Namaisi’s throws. His precision and speed in delivery have consistently found their mark in the crowded opponent’s box, making him a vital asset for Kataka.

In the first round of the league, Namaisi amassed ten assists, falling just short of eventual MVP Denis Kalanzi’s tally. His contributions were instrumental in Kataka’s victories, including three identical 2-1 wins at Mbale stadium against tough opponents.

Despite a slight reduction in assists in the second round, Namaisi remained a reliable presence on the field, missing only four games throughout the season. His absence was keenly felt by Kataka, especially in matches where they dropped crucial points.

While Kataka may not have achieved their desired promotion, Namaisi’s exceptional skill and dedication have not gone unnoticed. Like Delap, whose legacy still echoes in football folklore, Namaisi’s unique talent has left an indelible mark on Kataka’s season, deserving recognition and acclaim for his invaluable contributions.
