Rwakirungura emerged victorious in the highly anticipated Rugonde Cup, a football tournament that brought together eight parishes from Buyanja sub county and four wards from Buyanja town Council that started in November 2023.The excitement was palpable as teams showcased their skills and determination on the field.

Kicking off the event was a thrilling match between Buyanja Town Council sports academy and Kyamakanda sports academy, the curtain raisers for the main tournament. This spectacle set the tone for an action-packed day of football.

Rwakirungura beat Nyakaina on penalties after drawing 1:1 in the first ninety minutes and was crowned the champions of the Rugonde cup 2023.

Caleb Rugonde, the esteemed guest of honor at the event, expressed his commitment to fostering the development of sports in Buyanja. He assured attendees that efforts were underway to secure sponsors who would contribute to the growth of sports in the area.

Rugonde, a member of the influential Rugonde family, highlighted the unifying power of sports. He emphasized that sports bring people together in large numbers, enabling them to forge new friendships and strengthen community bonds.

Expressing his gratitude to the referee for his professionalism, Rugonde pledged to enhance the prizes for future winners of the tournament. In a gesture of goodwill, he presented 750,000 Uganda shillings to the champions, Rwakirungura, as a token of appreciation for their exceptional performance. Nyakaina, the runners-up team, was awarded 550,000 Uganda shillings while the academies received a combined total of 600,000 Uganda shillings.

In his closing remarks, Rugonde called upon all participants to exhibit a sense of patriotism and love for their country. He encouraged them to continue displaying the team spirit that was demonstrated throughout the tournament.

As the Rugonde Cup concluded, the celebratory atmosphere reflected the success of the tournament. The event not only showcased the talent and dedication of the participating teams but also highlighted the importance of sports in fostering unity and community spirit.

With the promise of even grander prizes in the future, the Rugonde Cup has undoubtedly become a highly anticipated event in the sporting calendar. As the champions, Rwakirungura walked away with the prestigious title and a cash reward, setting the stage for an unforgettable edition in the coming year.
