BASKETBALL governing body FUBA have received a major boost ahead of the Zone Five All Africa National Qualifiers after getting a considerable financial commitment that will go some way in easing their cash woes.
FUBA are way short of the sh60m they need to facilitate Uganda ’s men and women’s teams in the regional competition that will take place in Rwanda, February 1- 6.
However, the situation is set to significantly improve after soft drink giant Sprite offered sh55m, some of which will be used for the Zone Five Qualifiers.
