‘We are trying to motivate our strikers to score more goals and on this note, we believe when there is a cash prize, it will motivate them to score more goals. Fans need to see more goals and creativity of how the players score’ Dr. Ahimbisibwe told Fufa.co.ug
The award is named after the current FUFA President and Honourable Member of Parliament for Budiope East Eng Moses Magogo Hassim.
‘It will be called the Magogo top Scorer’s Award. We believe it will motivate players to score more goals thus getting better strikers.’He added.
Dr. Ahimbisibwe also embarked on a programme to support and give back to the football teams playing under the Kampala Region Football Association that he represents on the FUFA Executive.
Accompanied by the Chairman Kampala Region Kasalirwe Dirisa and his Deputy Nkuggwa, Dr. Ahimbisibwe was welcomed by the Nakawa District Football Association Chairman Lobbo Christopher where he donated to every club two balls each playing in the fourth and fifth division leagues.
” We are embarking on a program that was initiated in Kampala region to give out balls to all third and fourth division clubs in the entire Kampala Region Football Association. The initiative is to help clubs and we thought it would be nice to start with balls because the game cannot be played without a ball”
Dr. Ahimbisibwe further encouraged the District Football Association Chairmen and the Region’s boss to start looking at and planning for football as a money-generating investment which must be run as a business venture.
“The introduction of FUFA Tv on market should get everyone involved to build a product that will bring the benefits to the game from sponsors, market for players, data analysis and media consumption” noted Apollo.
The same programme of ball distribution will be extended to the other three District Football Associations (Kawempe, Makindye and Central) that make up Kampala Region FA.
