The Uganda Dancesport Federation (UDSF) is taking significant strides in empowering its athletes by participating in the National Olympic Committee (NOC) Athletes Workshop. This initiative aims to equip athletes with crucial safeguarding measures and help them in their career development.
Representing the UDSF were Birungi Mable Dativa, a distinguished DanceSport judge, and Okello Abraham aka Dance Boy, an accomplished DanceSport athlete specializing in Afro Dance and a student at Kyambogo University. Their participation underscores the federation’s commitment to the growth and welfare of its athletes.
The workshop provided an invaluable platform for athletes to learn about various safeguarding measures, ensuring their well-being both on and off the dance floor. Additionally, discussions concerning career pathways were held, emphasizing the importance of holistic development for athletes.
The UDSF expressed their gratitude to the Uganda Olympic Committee for providing such opportunities to DanceSport athletes. Through engagement in Olympic Solidarity programs, athletes gain exposure and resources that are essential for their growth. The UDSF is dedicated to nurturing talent and ensuring that its athletes have the necessary tools to succeed in their sporting endeavors.
As the UDSF continues to foster a supportive environment through initiatives like this workshop, the future looks bright for DanceSport in Uganda.
