The executive committee for the Uganda Muslim Education Association (UMEA) confirmed the hosts for the two upcoming years; 2025 and 2026.
The 2025 host school for these games will be Kayunga district based Namagabi Senior Secondary School, for the third time in the history of the games since 1998.
The games will again cross over to the Eastern part of the country; in Mbale city for the 2026 edition as Nkoma Secondary School will host the entourage.
This development was recently confirmed by the UMEA General Secretary, Hajji Abubakar S. Kakembo after a top Executive Committee Meeting held at UMEA head office – Kibuli in Kampala.
Therefore, the efforts to host successful events are underway by preparing the facilities that will be used for the championship.
The UMEA Solidarity Games include a number of ball games and racket sports for either gender.
The ball sports include football, netball, volleyball, basketball and handball. The racket sports family has Table Tennis, Badminton and Lawn Tennis.
The UMEA Solidarity Games are arguably the biggest Muslim School sports event in the country that brings together all Muslim faith founded schools in Uganda.
These games were established in 1998 but rebranded to UMEA Solidarity Games in 2013.
With the exception of the two grey-patched years (2020 and 2021) during the Coronavirus pandemic, this will be the 10th edition since rebranding.
A number of successful sports personalities have engaged in these games to feature for top elite sporting clubs, the national teams and also played professionally outside Uganda.
As the normal has been over the years, the games are played over the Easter holiday break for many schools.
