PROBLEMS
a) Accommodation
The director reside with more than 20 orphan, street children in one single room especially the street kids and the children without parents.



b) Feeding
Feeding is also our major problem as we do not get sponsor ship and if we get lunch supper become a dream.

c) Sickness
Some children get affected with sickness infections and treatment becomes a problem as some are familiar with street life

d) Transport
We do not have our own transport facility which makes transporting the team very difficult

e) Equipments
The team lacks uniform, boots, training bibs soccer balls ,computers
Body games equipments, Music/Drummer instruments, Acrobatics equipments and many others.
f) House Rent
We get a problem to look for money to cover the cost of house rent
g) Office rent
We get a problem to look for money to cover office rent.
h) School fees
Many of our members are orphans, Street kids we are supposed to look for sponsorship to cover their school fees. They are in both primary and secondary school. Not all of them Know Football that they will get half or full bursary they are only engaged in different activities like Tennis, Basketball, Arts and music and drummer, and many others which are not so much attractive to schools for Sponsorship so they need much help for their education.
i) Training grounds
This is our major problem in Kampala where by all pitches are sold off and to train in still available ones, you have to pay for the time to be used.

We do approach schools /institutions such that the children can attains education through bursary sponsorship in order to have future well behaved and good citizens.

Education
Related to country: Uganda


I see many school signposts here in Uganda reading that EDUCATION IS THE KEY TO SUCESS
but i strongly oppose it
because there ar many proffesional who are not practictioners of thire proffessions.
Instead it is the TALENT INDENTIFICATION WHICH IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS.
becaues the most expensive proffesion in the world is not the one with the richest proffesional in the wold but those who identy their talents in this rapidly cahinging world they will be rich
because the world is changing at high speed what you study in the university today by the time you are out of the university it has aready changed.
