The amendment of the fixtures comes only three days to go
until the regional competition has commenced Tuesday next week. This is because
after Zanzibar’s Falcons have dropped out of the competition as Chad’s electric
Sport replaced instead.
Chad is not affiliated to CECAFA, but its team will
participate in the tournament as a guest. Each year guest clubs or National
teams take part in the CECAFA tournaments, as Secretary General Nicholas
Musonye weights on the participation of outside countries which he believes has
‘sweetened’ CECAFA competitions so far.
Simba and Younga from Tanzania and Tusker from Kenya are also missing from the competition as other teams have replaced them as shown in the fixtures.
"Football is all about to create friendship and encourage
peace and integrations of different communities and for that reason we
emphasize the arrival of outside teams into our competitions, because this initiative
increases interest and even sweetens our tournaments” CECAFA secretary General
Mr. Nicholas Musonye told the CECAFA Media.
Elman FC from the war-weary Somalia is in group A with Elmarreikh
from Sudan, APR from Rwanda and Vitalo from Burundi. According to the fixtures Emlan
FC will have its frits match against APR on the 19th of June. The
match will be played at Elfasher Stadium.
