I am a Premier Skills level 1 coach educator. Joined PS in 2008 until now. I started a football project in 2010 and named it skilz Plus. Here we use football as a pull factor and tool to develop the community by engaging the youth girls and boys, give them basic football coaching as we address issues directly affecting them. The project has since seen over 1000 youths and also worked on several projects. These include, sanitation focusing on proper garbage disposal, Youth relationship with police focusing on community policing and crime prevention, Empowering young girls to develop confidence to play football, HIV prevention awareness over a cup of tea etc. The British council and Premier skills funded some of the programmes, but most of them have been seen through by the community. We are based in Makindye at Officers mess, and also worked with Right to Play Uganda e tc
