FOREWARD BY USF PRESIDENT
Dr. Donald Rukare
2014 was a seminal year for swimming in Uganda. The Uganda
Swimming Federation (USF) hosted for the first time ever the
epic CANA Zone 3 and 4 Swimming Championships in Kampala.
The event attracted 11 countries and over 300 swimmers. The
event allowed Uganda swimmers and fans to be exposed to an
international event and swimmers from East and Southern Africa.
In another first, USF was invited to make a presentation at the
3rd FINA World Aquatic Convention in Doha Qatar. This we believe
is a strong testament to the positive developments in Ugandan
Swimming.
We are also pleased to see the increase in the number of
swimming clubs. 2014 saw the number grow from about 3 clubs to
over 7 active clubs and over 24 schools. It is clear that swimming
is becoming more and more popular and with more swimmers in
the pool. We also able to participate in regional events in Nairobi
where Seals Swim Club and Dolphin Swim Clubs registered very
impressive results. In addition we had swimmers take part in the
African Youth Games in Gaborone and Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
Building the capacity of our sports administrators remains a strategic area of focus. Several of our
administrators participating in various training programs within Uganda organized by FINA and the Uganda
Olympic Committee as well as international programs outside Uganda.
I would like to take this opportunity to appreciate most sincerely the support we recived especially in
respect of hosting the CANA Zone 3 and 4 Championships. I thank the Nabagerka Foundation, Meera Group
of Companies, Kampala Parents, Mulwana Group of Companies. RAK Ceramics. Orange Telecom, GOTV.
GEMS International Schools, Sir Apollo Kaggwa, Maya and friends from International School in Uganda and
UMEME Limited for the generous support. I cannot forget Excel Insurance Company that has stood by us in
hosting the Excel Independence Swimming Championships for 13 years running.
I would like to commend my colleagues on the executive committee for their unwavering commitment to
the development of swimming in Uganda. The team spirt and teamship are truly exceptional and humbling.
Look we forward to an even better 2015 as we prepare for to host CANA Zone 3 , participate in the FINA
World Championship in Kazan Russia and RIO Olympics 2016.

2014 Report
2. KEY ACTIVITIES in 2014
Over the past year the following are the key activities that the USF has undertaken:
A.
Uganda Swimming Federation (USF) Executive Committee

The USF Executive Committee held monthly meetings every first Monday of the month throughout the
year. The meetings acted as a critical forum to discuss matters pertaining to running the affairs of USF.

International events
USF held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 15th February 2014. During this meeting the key activities
of 2013 were highlighted, the 2014 budget and calendar presented for approval together with the audited
accounts for 2014. During the year several national events were held. These included four national time trials, and the
Independence Excel Gala. The events continued to attract more swimmers and we intend to build on that
going forward. 2014 witnessed more schools/clubs (30) and over 600 hundred swimmers taking part in
USF event notably the Excel Gala. It is evident that the interest in swimming is growing as is the number of
swimmers.
The Minister of Education and Sports passed the National Council of Sports Regulations which required all
national federations to apply for registration and affiliation to NCS. To this end USF held an Extra Ordinary
General Assembly in July in order to comply with the requirement under the regulations. USF submitted its
application for registration and affiliation and is awaiting an official response from NCS.

Forging partnerships
Over the year USF continued to forge relationships with the Uganda Olympic Committee, National Council
of Sports, Ministry of Education and Sports and Special Olympics Uganda.
USF also maintained regular contact with its corporate sponsors who include, GEMS International, MTN
Uganda, DHL, Sadolin Paints, Excel Insurance, Kabira International School, Madavani Group. USF intends
to build on this based and has already contacted the Uganda Tourism Board to explore possible areas of
cooperation. USF has also contacted the Japanese Olympic Committee, Japanese Embassy and Chinese
Embassy to discussed collaboration initiatives. These will be followed up in 2015.
Uganda Swimming Federation in conjunction with the Uganda Lifesavers Association and Swim Safe Uganda
run water safety programs in 2014 and intends to build on this in 2015. Swim Safe Uganda hosted a one
week lifesaving skills clinic in Uganda.
3. Affiliation fees for 2014
The Federation has paid up it 2014 affiliation fees to UOC, CANA and FINA. We have no outstanding dues
with our affiliate bodies. National Council of Sports has also affiliated USF. USF is therefore a fully paid up
member and in good standing with all attendant bodies.
International events
USF will host CANA zone 3 2015. We expect Kenya, Tanzania, Burundi , Rwanda and Sudan to attend this
event in December 2015. The event will provided a useful platform for our swimmers to bench mark
themselves against their regional peers.
4. CONSTRAINTS FACED
2014 was not without its challenges for USF. These included:
Lack of resources impacts on scope of activities. So far a few companies, clubs, executive committee
officials and a few well wishes have funded the activities.
Lack of an office, national pool and Chief Executive Officer.
Still urban based need to spread out activities
Clubs and individuals have not paid annual subscription fees.
Several clubs have not had active calendar.
Officiating and lack of an electronic timing system
Some clubs/schools are not part of USF activities
In 2015 we hope to be able to address these constraints in order to effectively run USF related activities.
14
2014 Report
5. WAY FORWARD
Set up a National Aquatic Center committee.
Revise the USF a strategic plan which is linked to the FINA development plan, UOC strategic plan
and national sports policy ( yet to come into force).
Develop a fundraising strategy
Develop new program areas i.e. diving and long-distance swimming.
Further develop and promote linkages with key stakeholders such as GEMS International School,
Uganda Tourism Board Crown Beverages (Pepsi Cola Uganda), KCB, Centenary Rural Bank and
Mukwano Industries.
Develop a strategy to engage clubs more and reach out to new clubs/schools
Run water safety and learn to swim programs.
Roll out the 2015 calendar (attached).
6.CONCLUSION
The USF continues to strive to take swimming to higher levels in Uganda. I would like to thank my colleagues
on the executive committee and the members of the various committees for their tireless efforts over the
last year. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all our stakeholders, swimmers, clubs, schools,
parents, coaches, media and our corporate sponsors. I believe together we can contribute to the further
advancement of swimming and aquatic sport in Uganda.
