The Okoa Soccer Academy has been a huge part of growth and fun happening at Okoa. It is divided into two groups, the Vikings for the older kids and the Cubs for the younger children. The activities include skill training, running, scrimmaging, and soccer matches. “Okoa Soccer Academy has improved my physical and mental health. It has led to the development of talents within myself and other children at Okoa and in the community. Friendships have been built and the excitement level overall has increased. The Okoa Soccer Academy has brought many of us closer to our vision of playing football on big soccer teams.” - Bamalaki David “I am so glad to be part of the Vikings team and would like to show appreciation to our coach, Walusimbi, who has helped me grow into what I am now. Through this team I have improved my football skills and have now joined my school team, playing with talented football leagues in Uganda. It has also taught me the value of hard work.” - Kato David “The Okoa Soccer Academy has helped us in so many ways, including mental health, promoting our talents, developing friendships, and meeting community members. I would like to thank God for the opportunity he has given us, Okoa for giving us the chance to participate, and all of the supporters of Okoa so that we can have this wonderful academy. - Yiga Moses
