Team Uganda Deputy Delegation Leader Ayub Khalifa expressed optimism that Uganda will perform well at the games as has been the norm. “We all arrived here safely and are ready for the games. All of our six school and track team athletes are in good shape and ready to compete. We appreciate the government for its support, together with the school boards, in giving young talents this opportunity,” said Khalifa.

According to the program, Wednesday was reserved for recovery training for the upcoming teams, while the technical meetings of the officials were scheduled for Thursday before the actual competition starts on Friday.
