She Cranes’ Resilience Shines as They Fight Back Against Malawi for a Well-Deserved Third Place


The start of the match was challenging for Uganda as the team appeared nervous and struggled with turnovers early on. In the first quarter, Malawi led with an 8-2 score. However, Uganda fought hard to get back into the game, and by halftime, they had worked their way to a 14-11 lead.

After the break, the She Cranes continued to push forward, and notable improvements came from Haniisha Muhammed and Gloria Aye, who stepped up their game. Despite this, mistakes started creeping in, and Malawi capitalized on those errors. However, Margaret Baagala stood tall against Malawi’s midcourt, intercepting several key passes.

Uganda’s performance steadily improved throughout the match, and Coach Rashid Mubiru’s team displayed the tenacity and skill we know them for. They brought Malawi to their knees with a display of resilience and determination.

By the end of the game, the players were elated and excited, feeling both relieved and proud of their effort. Although England defeated South Africa to secure the overall title, the She Cranes’ third-place finish was a satisfying and well-earned achievement.
