Record Turnout at 8th Women’s Woodball Championship Marks Milestone for Inclusivity in Sports

The 8th edition of the Women’s Woodball Championship celebrated a landmark moment for women in sports, as over 130 participants gathered at Nabagereka Primary School, Mengo, to compete in various categories.

This year’s event highlighted the skill, resilience, and progress of female athletes, further cementing the sport’s growing popularity in Uganda.

Athletes competed fiercely for honors across individual, corporate, and institutional divisions, marking a significant step forward in the development of women’s woodball.

John Bosco Kaddu, CEO of the Uganda Woodball Federation, emphasized the championship’s mission to empower women.

“Our goal is to make woodball an inclusive sport where women can thrive, compete, and inspire future generations,” he stated.

For many participants, the championship has been more than just a competition. It’s a platform for personal and professional transformation.

However, challenges remain. Mukoya Florence, known as Flare, shed light on societal stereotypes still faced by female athletes.

“Women in sports often have to prove themselves twice as much. Some men assume our dedication to the game reflects disloyalty as partners,” she remarked.

Despite these barriers, the record participation at this year’s championship demonstrates an upward trajectory for women in woodball.

Kaddu expressed optimism about the sport’s future, stating, “The numbers keep increasing every year, and that’s a clear sign that more women are embracing the sport.”

As Uganda continues to champion gender equality in sports, the Women’s Woodball Championship stands as a shining example of how platforms for female athletes can promote talent, resilience, and inclusivity.
