On 23rd March, our Nyumba y a Masambiro Youth team played an exciting football match against Khomola Youth at the Beach Ground. Although the final score was 1–2 in favour of Khomola Youth, our team played with determination and showed good teamwork and sportsmanship throughout the game.
The match was attended by over 100 people from the community, who came to watch and support the players. Before heading down to the ground, there was music and dancing in the NYM Youth Hall, creating an enjoyable and lively atmosphere for everyone.
After the match, everyone shared a delicious meal of goat, nsima, rice, and tea, which gave the youth and supporters time to sit together and chat.
The day also included discussions encouraging the young people to work hard, play well, and maintain good behaviour. There were question-and-answer sessions between the two youth groups on school subjects, helping to build confidence and support learning.
Although the result did not go NYM’s way, the day was a positive time of sport, learning and community involvement. We are proud of our youth team and look forward to the next match!
