Uganda is hosting the Rugby Africa Cup, the biggest event on the continent this weekend and to ensure great hospitality, all the eight teams taking part in the tournament are residing at Speke Resort in Munyonyo.
As Uganda positions itself to host more international sporting meets, hosting players at a top facility ticks several hospitality boxes for the country. This rugby event can serve as a “dress rehearsal for the 2027 Africa Cup football tournament.
The first country to arrive was Burkina Faso on Monday morning, and management at Munyonyo says they are dedicated to ensuring a comfortable and relaxing stay for the players.
