Uganda has stepped up preparations for the Riyadh 2025 Islamic Solidarity Games in Saudi Arabia, adding Para-Powerlifting to its roster in a move that signals growing ambition and inclusivity in international sport.
The inclusion of Para-Powerlifting marks a key milestone for Uganda’s participation at the Games, widening its representation and bolstering medal prospects.
The country’s adaptive athletes have shown strong potential in previous regional and continental competitions, and their addition is expected to strengthen Uganda’s challenge on the global stage.
With this latest development, Uganda will now field athletes in seven disciplines at the Islamic Solidarity Games.
The expansion reflects the nation’s steady progress in nurturing talent across a broader sporting spectrum, blending youthful energy with experienced competitors.
As the countdown to Riyadh 2025 continues, optimism remains high within the Ugandan camp.
The team’s blend of resilience, unity, and determination has long defined its performances at international events, and officials are confident that spirit will once again shine through when the Games kick off next year.
