In the early morning hours of Saturday 14^th.Nov.2015, we started the day with the holy Eucharist led by our rector Fr. Jean Marie. He called the Holy Spirit to guide us through out the day. By 9 o^’clock all the boys and girls had their breakfast and the brass band started while the participants well dressed in their sports suits matched. The games started well though weather was not good. The Kamuli girls and bombo girls were the first to play football and bombo won with 2 points. This was officiated by Brother Hubert. On the side of basketball, Fr.Jean Marie was the officiator of the game when Namugongo was versing Bombo. Namugongo managed to win Bombo with a big difference of points. At exactly 1 o^’clock they all went for their lunch and after they proceeded with the games. The final results were announced by Fr. Jean Marie. Bombo managed to win football both in girls and boys; Namugongo took the second position and Kamuli got zero points.
