World over, football continues to ship out great talents, opening the way for new talents to come in.
In that regard, Hamza Kaggwa seems to be one of the upcoming talents poised to attract large crowds in the game of football in the coming generation.
The senior two student of God’s Way High School Maganjo caught attention for his game at Under 14 Wakiso Zone Football Qualifiers last month while playing against big sides like St. Mary’s Kitende and Buddo Secondary School in the USSSA Ball Games Under 14 Qualifiers.
Despite his side receiving a barrage of goals, conceding ten times in just two games, Kaggwa was a player to watch throughout the qualifiers.
With commanding support, passing accuracy, and skill presence in the middle of the park, he rubbed shoulders with top players in Uganda high school football, like Owen Mukisa, the MVP of the Under 20 championship held in Ngora. Kaggwa was not intimidated.
Most football fans, technical staff, and scouts who watched the games were excited about Kaggwa.
His high school coach, Joseph Mutebi, is in praise of the talented boy.
“Kaggwa is a good midfielder, full of confidence given his age. He is fearless; even though he has a small body, he never shies away from making tackles or fighting for the ball.
“His decision-making is always on point, and his game understanding is high. However, there is room for him to become a better player than he is now.”
As God’s Way High School is plotting for participation in the USSSA Ball Games Under 14 boys’ football championship, Kaggwa is among the boys raising their bars ahead of the championship coming on July 10th to 20th in Tororo.
Kaggwa Hamuza is the 5th born in the family with 2 sisters (Nabukenya Rehema, and Babirye Shamim) and 5 brothers (Bukenya Hakim, Bukenya Hassan, Kiiza Sudais, Bukenya Arafat, Matovu Dirisa and Bukenya Kato)
