Africa-Press<\/a> – Uganda<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>The She Cranes senior player, Stella Oyella, has tipped youngsters on the team prepare on the game ahead of the Netball Test Series against South Africa from March 24-31 in Cape Town.<\/p>\n

Oyella, the most capped player on the current team preparing for the tour, the majority of whom are youngsters, challenged his peers to gain confidence, work hard and be fast to analyse circumstances.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough some people have doubt in us, I advise my teammates to turn a deaf ear to such words,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is about getting strong which is achieved by working hard. Discipline and confidence on the national team is paramount.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Oyella admitted the players were yet to gain full fitness.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough most of us are still unfit, we hope to gain fitness with time. That Covid-19 lockdown left most players dormant and some of us have gained weight. We need to burn those calories,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Oyella also emphasised extra effort and personal training, saying it gives players advantage on the national team.<\/p>\n

Oyella, a regular on the national team, was twice named the Most Valuable Player at the 2019 Netball World Cup and went on to scoop the Uganda Sports Press Association Netball Player of the Year accolade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
