A Step to Professionalism: Term Three Holiday 2018 Soccer Sessions Set-off.
Arising from a concrete study about youth development in line with soccer, Edgars Youth Programme (EYP) revised possible ways on how to solidify Uganda’s prospects as per the arising need for grooming and production of professional sportsmen for both National and International duties. To maintain the physical, mental, spiritual and tactical stability of our youths, close attention should be emphasized thus creating a need for a special program that can help in teaching and monitoring of the young age to guide them through their holidays and project their talents and personalities to greater levels.
