Sports Association of Ugandans in North America (SAUNA) director Godfrey Ssembeguya underlined the importance of football academies in the development of sports talent.

Talent development was one of several tips shared by Ssembeguya while launching the association’s objectives to various stakeholders in Kampala on January 9, 2022.

“Talent development is one of our key objectives at SAUNA,” Ssembeguya told the media at City High School ground.

“We are determined to mobilize the youth in Uganda and North America and support their interests in developing their sports career,” he added before donating training equipment which included balls and cones to Prosper Soccer Academy.

“We are thrilled to be here, to motivate this young talent and try to contribute to their development. At SAUNA, we try to raise support both financially and logistically for the unprivileged youth,” he stated.

The other SAUNA directors at the function included Laurian Lubulwa and General Secretary Moses Kabugo.
