Boys playing a pickup game of soccer at one of the schools in Walukuba, Uganda. Their playtime at school is often unorganized and lacks any kind of equipment, but X-SUBA Sport4Development provides bibs, soccer balls, and coaches as they visit a different school each day of the week.

Another successful day...from left to right, Kenneth, co-founder of X-SUBA, Jay Jay, Iggy, and Simon. This makes up almost the entire compliment of volunteer coaches who visit different schools in their community each week to bring organized sports and exercise to them.

Simon, a volunteer, teaching the alphabet to children at the X-SUBA Learning Center. They hold classes three days a week (English, Math, and Critical Thinking) during the morning hours. These classes are designed to keep the children in an educational environment until they can find tuition to attend primary school.

X-SUBA Sport4Development volunteer instructors use donated items like these flashcards to teach English to students whose parents can't afford to send them to school. The students are often at the top of their class once they can find a means to enter school thanks to these efforts.

Children playing on a swing during a break at X-SUBA's Learning Center. The swing was a gift and constructed by one of the European volunteers who visit X-SUBA.

Solomon using a graphics program to teach children how to use a computer mouse. Computer skills are becoming very important in Uganda, and even children whose parents can't afford school are able to learn these skills at X-SUBA's new ICT center.

Jay Jay, X-SUBA's head soccer coach, hands out bibs during a school sports tournament day. The local schools can't afford uniforms or balls for the children, so X-SUBA rotates through the different schools each day of the week to provide these items for sports programs.

Students participating in a school sports tournament line up before a soccer match. The school doesn't have proper bibs or good soccer balls, so X-SUBA coaches were there to provide them.

A great display of sportsmanship before a soccer game. This was during a school sports tournament day at a local primary school. X-SUBA provided the bibs and soccer balls; without them the kids would be playing with unserviceable equipment and no uniforms.

A goalie signaling that he's ready prior to the start of a school soccer tournament. The field shares the same space as an agricultural veterinary clinic; the stables serve as the backdrop for the goal.

Coaches and teachers with the winning soccer team after a school sports tournament. The uniforms and ball were provided by X-SUBA since many of the schools don't have a budget for a sports program.

Bodas (motorcycle taxis) in front of the Jinja Central Market. Law requires all drivers to be licensed, carry only one passenger, and provide helmets, but the financial situation of many drivers means that often all three of those rules are ignored at once.
