More School of Excellence Players called to National team

A total of four members of Kampala School of Excellence Football team have been called to the national U-17 and U-20 teams in preparations for major tournaments. The players were summoned after intensive scrutiny and scounting undertaken by The Federation of Uganda Football Associations Technical team. Three of the summoned players are on football exchange programs with West-African based football clubs.
Henry Kasirye a midfielder who turns out for Kumasi based Highlanders FC of Ghana has been called to the national U-20 squad. Kasirye has played for a number of teams before his return to Kampala recently. While captain of Kampala School of Excellence Football Club, he led the team to the finals of the Rubaga Second Divison league helping it to qualify to the First Division.
He later moved on to Ivory Coast where he featured for Centre Formation Botou Dientenku in the Ivorian Third league. He soon caught the eyes of Ghana-based Welfare Stars playing in the country's Second Division. Kasirye playing qualities were soon realised by George Arthur Oteng, Chairman of Highlanders Football Club of Ghana who sighned him for the 2009/2010 season. He is currently back in Uganda and has rejoined his former colleagues in training at Kampala School of Excellence Football Club.

His Ghana-based colleague Yasin Muyimba has been called to the national U-17 team that has gone into residential training. Yasin was part of the Kampala School of Excellence Football team that Henry led to the finals of the 2007 Second Division. He moved to Ivory Coast playing for Centre Formation Botou Dientenku together with Henry Kasirye until he caught the attention of Ghana-based Welfare Stars which he played for until his recent calling to the national U-17 team.

Also called to the national U-20 team is Kampala School of Excellence FC's Moses Nsubuga currently playing for Cameroon-based Etoile Sportive ISMACO. Nsubuga was KSEFC's Captain in the Country's first division before he moved to ISMACO on an exchange program.
Another KSEFC player Mohamed Kanakulya also received summons to feature for Uganda's national U-17 team that has gone into residential training shortly before Easter. The youthful defender was part of the Uganda Super 11 selected to play against a team of African Stars in December 2009 which included Cyril Mackanaky, Omam Biyik and Patrick Mboma. Kanakulya currently plays for KSEFC in the Uganda First Division.
