NKUMBA LADY MARINES TEST IS DUE ON SUNDAY AT 14:00 HRS @ MAKERERE GROUND COURT

A1 Challenge wait to pounce on the Nkumba Lady Marines on Sunday 14:00hrs. Most of the A1 Challenge ladies were disappointed by their loss to Lady Canons last Sunday but are eager to right the wrongs and get back their winning ways.

The Nkumba Lady Marines are so far having a baptism of fire in their debut season in the top flight ladies basketball.

Their defeat to the Magic Stormers some weeks ago is testament to the woes the Lady Marines have on their plate. Players like Esther Marion and Constance Nakayenze, their most promising offensive threats are yet to figure out how the "big ladies" play.

A1 Challenge will be missing their talisman guard in Khisa Marie, who is off till the second round, Okot Barbra who is recovering from a knee injury, Angellah Lokidi recovering from a broken ankle and other long time absentees like Erykah and Bagiire Dorcas Mirembe.

It suffices to say that the voids left by the missing players have been well covered so to speak by the return of Nalubega Maggie, Ntale Vicky, Kikkazi Carol and promising youngstar Nakazibwe Sylivia who have boosted the squad hence causing team-selection headache for Coach Jeff Omondi which is a good thing if you ask me.

Bazira Liz will have to stay safe after being dismissed in the Lady Canons game in the name of foul trouble. She will be looking to Larry K especially to help her in picking the rebounds both offensively and defensively.

Generally, Team A1 Challenge has to up their precision in the offense as they tighten up their defense, seeing that in their previous game against Lady Canons,after tightening up their defense if they had taken their chances as they came, it most definitely would have been a nervy ending.

Having said thay, the game will be starting at 14:00hrs at the Makerere Grounds Court.

Stay tuned as we will be there to bring you the action as it happens.

One Lurv....God Bless
