Capacity Building: Kenya leads quest for Quadball drastic growth in Great Lakes Region

For a specific project to stem ground and gradually sprout through leaps and bound, there are always deliberate undertakings, normally behind the scenes.

These are initiatives meant to give the project at hand relevance and the due prominence.

For the unique sport of Quadball, a number of capacity building workshops and training sessions are being employed to ensure that as many people grasp the basics of this game.

In Kenya, the Quadball Federation of Kenya (QFK) hosted a successful dual-phase training clinic over the weekend at the Uhuru Complex in Nairobi city.

About 30 (thirty) 30 enthusiastic players from various schools and local communities, all eager to master the sport’s technical fundamentals, attended this workshop.

The program transitioned from an intensive classroom theory session to practical drills on the pitch.

“We had a good training session for Quadball at Uhuru complex. The participants went through theory and practical drills, all eager to learn more about the sport” Michael Smith Mugote, the lead instructor remarked.

Despite a heavy downpour, the athletes’ spirits remained unbroken as they pushed through physical practice in the rain.

The session was led by Mugote, supported by Coach Eunice Ajiambo and coach-player Fazil Afazi.

Looking ahead, the Quadball Federation of Kenya is focused on establishing a sustainable local league—aiming to be the first of its kind in Africa.

This initiative serves as a foundation for forming a national team to represent Kenya at the International Quadball Association Quadball World Cup 2027, where the federation hopes to showcase African talent on the global stage.

 Training continues next weekend (Saturday and Sunday) at 2:00 PM at the same venue.

This game is also prominent in Uganda with Masaka city taking the lead.
