The young single mothers were depressed due to big responsibilities without a sure future plan.
Gathering in evenings to do netball training brought hope for a future eventually grew to 80 members within a year.
Later Swift superladies netball club reproduced other clubs within due age groups ( Swift kids club,Swift superladies netball club,Swift Teenz club and Swift mixed club)
In 2022 we recognized a need which came out of circumstances in community and therefore we thought to register a community based organization to also contribute to fight of poverty in the community through a sport talent ( netball, football and rugby) as for start and also hoping to set up a recreation center for practical skilling.

Our Journey
Our journey; we were founded by male coach who came with a vision to empower women through sports in community.
It started by a small whispering mobilization to some few that....there's a coach who has come to our village to coach women in netball.
I and 3 friends met him at some village joint; Kiteezi some sunday evening. The coach said " I have a vision to empower women in this village and other communities but can't do it alone."
We bought his idea,looked for a school play ground...applied for permission to use and administration allowed us 3 days in week only evenings which we accepted.
We started our trainings,that in April 2019. We started 4 and went on growing in numbers everyday until COVID 19 lock down destructed everything.
However we resumed in August 2021 after loosing 70% of our members.
After COVID 19 lock down we got a meeting and resolution was to establish a sports organization to fight poverty through the talents like netball,football and rugby among single mothers,youth, children and young mothers.
Today we are registered CBO in Nansana municipality, Wakiso district,Uganda East Africa.
