The stadium’s national athletics track was completed in September last year as part of the first phase of the extensive renovation project.

With the tartan surface now fully ready for use, the upcoming event will serve as its official reopening for athletics competitions.

The National Over Distance Championships will feature a range of events for both men and women, including the 150m, 300m, 600m, 1000m, 6000m, long jump, and javelin throw.

These events will offer athletes a chance to test their skills and endurance on the newly laid track, with top local athletes set to compete across the different disciplines.

This year’s edition is expected to attract top local athletes eager to compete on the newly laid track, as well as rising stars looking to make their mark early in the season.

Uganda Athletics Federation (UAF) officials have welcomed the return of events to Namboole, noting that the renovated track will provide athletes with a world-class platform to prepare for international competitions.

The stadium’s return to hosting athletics is also expected to boost Uganda’s preparations for major events, including the 2025 World Championships.

Namboole is also set to host CHAN 2024 in August this year.
