The fourty juniors who made the cut and participated in the Uganda Youth Lacrosse Championships will be of greater value if they can influence just two of their friends each to practice and learn the game of lacrosse.

The juniors are the solid rock in the development of lacrosse programs because the grass root programs is aimed at attracting more and more potential talented juniors to kick start a sports career in lacrosse.

I have never been so hopeful about Africa,not because i have all the solutions/answers,or that i know the magnitude of our challenges. But i am ready to sow hope and i can see us breaking barriers moving forward.-Twesiime Liberty President and CEO Africa Lacrosse. ‪#‎MtotoWaFrika‬‪#‎TukkoPaMoja‬.

Youth teams are the smartest target for the foundational growth of he game i African countries and when the Ugadan junior team plays against neigbouing Kenya,the barriers will be shaken away paving way for anew chapter of Lacrosse in Afica.

I can't retire playing lacrosse now.

A bad motor accident can't stop a super talented dedicated team player,it can only change a few matters of the game and that's why Twesiime Liberty. the 2011 and 2012 Most Clinical defender in the Uganda National Lacrosse League. has now started training goal keeper position to make up the lost time of 18 months he spent on the side lines recovering. I HOPE I CATCH UP FAST ENOUGH,the game has grown in strides since i last played and i will be an amateur for a couple of weeks until i am good to go''Twesiime says''.

When a young girl picks up a lacrosse stick in sub-Sahara Africa,they will have made a decision to study at Universities like Hopkins,Yale,Princeton and the University of Maryland.

How near to reality is this dream to a less previledged girl in Kampala Uganda who would want to be part of a success story whose life turned around because of lacrosse from a would be teenage mother to a hard core educated woman of susbstance who would stop at nothing to empower milions of Africa girls who have not come to reality with the current trend of life where all humanity deserves a flat plat form to be able to compete favourably.

This is to give African lacrosse programs even a better new twist of focus,to use the platform the game has provided to be able to motivate and engange in community based outreach programs for a better and empowered lacrosse world.

Lacrosse a team sport like the most popular games in Africa ie soccer and cricket has easily been accepted in most parts of Kenya capital Nairobi along with other western parts of Mumias.

Speed is a core value and Kenyans are not short of it.

The deliberate growth movement of the game of lacrosse is to create a platform for African talented youth to be able to discuss development and entrepreneurship ventures and how to better the lives of those involved in the game.
