Seven countries are set to compete in the regional competition, scheduled at the Kigali Golf Resort and Villas from October 31 to November 4, Xinhua reports.


"We are fortunate because we have participated in several tournaments in the past two months, which have bolstered our form," Kabasweka remarked.


She further noted her recent victories at the 2023 Uganda Ladies Open and the NCBA Entebbe Championship have spurred her on as she leads the team in Rwanda. "We are going to battle and win the trophy," she added.


The Uganda team, which includes Meron Kyomugisha, Judith Komugisha, Eva Magala, and reserve Wendy Angu'deyo, is guided by professional player Flavia Namakula.
