Paralympic Push Begins as Uganda Wheelchair Rugby Gets First Major Support

Uganda’s ambitions in wheelchair rugby have gained major momentum with the launch of the first-ever Tugende Wheelchair Rugby Clinic, backed by a donation of nine specialized rugby chairs, gloves, and balls from supporter Fabiano Lioi.

Wheelchair Rugby President Jayrus Wanyera said the immediate priority is building a strong, competitive squad, with plans to host a friendly championship against Kenya in 2026 as a stepping stone toward a Paralympic Games slot.
