PROMOTING CRICKET
 One of the greatest idea that I got was this. We see that there are very many peoplthem. And our main final challenge was arrabgig thying football in Uganda, many schools teaching football, basketball, and other sports but cricket is one sport that is played by a very few people in Uganda but there are many intrested in learning cricket so why not teach the schools cricket. And then I got a few schools arranged with the help of my tuition teachers and there we went to two schools who had no idea what cricket was but were really interested in the game. In the time of 1week  we fought these schools cricket. We had a really tough time cause it was our first time but successfully we taught them.  The intrest that they had was amazing which made it easy for us and for them. They learnt all the rules and the style of play and believe me or not they were the fastest learners I have ever seen. It took me more than two years to learn the basic rules of cricket they learnt it in one week which was really surprising for me. We allways have our tests to know were we stand teachers also have the test weather they taught students properly so I have my test tommorow as the schools are going to play a match tommorow I can check weather we have taught them properly and weather they learn perfectly. But I am really confident that they will pass and make me pass.

Learning outcomes
Increase your awareness of your own strengths and your areas of growth: Before i started this I never new that I could coach anyone because it was my first time and it was really helpfull. I could teach many people which really gave me an inner proud that I was helping the people who did not have the facilities to play.

Show perseverance and commitment in your activities : I am very sure that I put a lot of  effort this week because I went everyday and was with the schools teaching them cricket for about three hours everyday and arranged all the equipment to be set to play.


Work collaboratively with others : This was a really important thing in this project, nothing would be possible without my friends helping me out to teach cricket to the kids. Cricket is a sport which is divided into many things if we didn't divide the work it would be really difficult to complete the work the two main people who were actively participating with me are Nitin and Siddharth.

Undertake new challenges: I think we did undertake new challenges because it was the first time that I ever coached a team and taught a sport. It was really togh and we had to do a lot of hard work. Firs and foremost I had to get back in form because it was a really long time since I played cricket.

Devolop a new skill: As I mentioned earlier it was my first time I ever taught a tea so this was obviosly the main skill that I developed. It was really a great experiance t teach and I leaent that it is really tough to teach and all teahers n the world must be facing problems.

Plan and initiate activities: we obviously had to do this we had to plan eveeyday wat we had to teach them our main plannng happened when we had to arrange a match agans both the schools but luckly with a lot of work we could conduct it.
