The Baby Gladiators are determined to improve their performance this year following an underwhelming showing in 2024. The team assembled for camp on Sunday, ahead of their first assignment of the new year which will see them face Uganda in Kampala over two legs of Fifa under-17 Women’s World Cup qualification next week. Uganda host the first leg on 16 January at the Kampala Hamz Stadium, with the second leg scheduled for 19 January at the same stadium. Baby Warriors head coach Hafeni Ndeitunga stresses the importance of putting their best foot forward, in what is expected to be testing matches against Uganda. His side endured a torrid time at the Cosafa tournament for their age group in November and December, losing all three of their matches by high scores.
