In 2015 our workmen built a “Beach Volleyball” court, to encourage un-employed, destitute local young people from our community to come to the property and have fun playing volleyball. It is a popular sport in Uganda, but there are very limited opportunities for young people to enjoy playing the game in Kitgum. The men dug out the existing soil, replaced it with river sand, erected the steel poles for the net, and then set about having lots of fun! Volley-ball has been enjoyed by staff and their children on our “Family Days” and it is planned to encourage local young people to form teams and hold regular competition matches in the future.
