THE Zimbabwe Under-13 football team, who took part in the East Africa Cup, were awarded this year’s Fair Play trophy at the event.<\/p>\n

The Under-13 got a floating trophy in their category where they were judged to be the team that had the right age for the ninth edition of the East Africa Cup.<\/p>\n

The Young Warriors could only reach the quarter-finals where Mysa of Kenya beat them by 7-1.<\/p>\n

Zimbabwe played well in their first match against the host Tanzania whom their beat 3-1, and the second match against Uganda.<\/p>\n

The Under-13 team manager Israel Nhawu said he was happy with the team’s performance during the East Africa Cup.<\/p>\n

“I am very happy with the boys who played so well, if only there was no age cheating among other teams, maybe we could have been the winners in the Under-13 boys category.<\/p>\n

“The boys were also happy that although they did not manage to win, we had a good experience at the tournament,” said Nhawu.<\/p>\n

Zambia was among the teams that were told to produce birth certificates for some of their players as they were suspected of age-cheating.<\/p>\n

Zambia’s Under-16 boys’ coach said all their players had the right age required for the specific category.<\/p>\n

The Zambians later withdrew from the tournament.<\/p>\n

One of the organisers of the East Africa Cup Henry Majale said this year’s edition was very interesting as they introduced new discipli-nes.<\/p>\n

“This year’s edition was very interesting as we introduced new disciplines to the tournament, which includes volleyball and sitting volleyball.<\/p>\n

“Our achievements are more than the challenges that we faced during the tournament,” said Majale.<\/p>\n

East Africa Cup organisers managed to host workshops for the participants where they were taught a number of issues, including how to be a successful leader in different sporting disciplines.<\/p>\n
