Uganda Volleyball Cranes stars to play for Rwandan sides in Genocide Memorial Tournament

When the Genocide Memorial Tournament volleys off on Saturday in Kigali, Rwanda, there will be a good representation of Uganda.

At least three Uganda Volleyball Cranes are set to star for Rwandan sides in the two-day tournament.

Jakarta Bhayangkara Presisi opposite Daudi Okello, is one of the players who will suit up for a Rwandan team.

The Uganda vice-captain will play for Rwanda National Police and will be facing opposition from some of his international teammates.

Cuthbert Malinga turns out for Gisagara Volleyball Club, while Gideon Angiro is with APR.

In the women’s category, Rwanda National Police has acquired the services of Ndejje Elites’ receiver-attacker Catherine Ainembabazi for the tournament.

Police have continued to struggle in their effort to close the gap between themselves and the top two sides, APR and Rwanda Revenue Authority.

In the same team, Ainembabazi will play with former Ndejje middle blocker Sharon Amito.

REG (men) and APR were crowned champions after edging Gisagara Volleyball Club and RRA, respectively.

Then, Okello played for REG but will now turn the guns against them.

KAVC and Nemostars are the two Ugandan teams expected to make the trip for the two-day event.
