LycaMobile Uganda has proudly stepped onto the pitch as a key player in Ugandan cricket’s future through a groundbreaking five-year partnership with the Uganda Cricket Association (UCA). This strategic alliance goes beyond a sponsorship; it’s a long-term commitment to build a robust cricket ecosystem in Uganda, from grassroots development to propelling national teams to international glory.
LycaMobile’s impact is already evident. The Victoria Pearls, Uganda’s women’s team, took to the field with brand new kits sponsored by LycaMobile during the ICC Women’s T20 Global Qualifier, a boost to their confidence that undoubtedly contributed to their success. The men’s team, the Cricket Cranes, weren’t just provided with stylish World Cup jerseys, but also received crucial funding for pre-tournament training camps, a vital factor in their historic ICC T20 World Cup debut.
LycaMobile’s dedication extends beyond financial backing. They’re building a strong bond with the players. The Cricket Cranes received a hero’s welcome upon returning from the World Cup, with a celebratory open-top bus parade culminating in a reception at the LycaMobile Uganda offices. This wasn’t just a one-time gesture; LycaMobile further solidified their commitment by facilitating a meeting with the First Family, showcasing their dedication to cricket at the highest levels of Ugandan society.
LycaMobile truly understands the concept of celebrating excellence. Each Cricket Cranes World Cup squad member received a state-of-the-art iPhone 15 Pro Max and a Lyca SIM card. This generous gesture highlights LycaMobile’s focus on player well-being and their desire to make cricket a more attractive and rewarding career path for aspiring Ugandan athletes.
Looking ahead, LycaMobile has a well-defined strategy for Ugandan cricket’s future.
They’re committed to improving cricket infrastructure across the country, supporting the UCA in attracting highly qualified coaching staff, and securing international playing opportunities for Ugandan cricketers.
Most importantly, they plan to develop a robust grassroots program to unearth young talent and cultivate a lasting passion for the sport within Ugandan youth.
LycaMobile’s sponsorship is a powerful innings for Ugandan cricket. It’s a partnership that injects not just financial resources, but also a sense of excitement, a commitment to player well-being, and a clear roadmap for the sport’s sustained growth at all levels.
