“Most of the time I watch football on the TV at home and during holidays and the weekend, I play football with my friends. My Daddy and Uncle inspired me to love soccer. My favorite team is Man-U and my best player is Wayne Rooney.” Bonheur Iradukunda, 11, P.5. “Swimming is my favourite sport. My Doctor advised me to go swimming so that I stay healthy. Besides that I have a lot of fun at the swimming pool with friends.” Mercent Uwase, 11, P.5. “I am a soccer and cricket fan but cricket is my favourite game because when I am playing cricket, all my mind is focused on following the ball at all corners.

She never leaves me behind when she goes swimming and she always encourages me to go swimming when I am free.” Napine Tumuhoze, 11, P.5. “I like football because that is what my Daddy taught me when I was still young. at school I enjoy playing football.” Chelsea Mwiza, 11, P.5. “I personally play rugby which is a game that most kids are scared to join.
