Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Marion Kisakye is the new poster girl of pool in Uganda. Unstoppable as her break shot, Kisakye, popularly known as Ankah Sheila, isn’t just carving her name into the record books, she’s rewriting them altogether.<\/b><\/p>\n

Having secured a sensational back-to-back victory, first at the PAU Grand Open and now claiming the coveted Pool Queen title, Kisakye is leaving opponents and pool fans alike in a stunned silence, punctuated only by the satisfying click of racked pool balls. Her win at Jinja was a masterclass skill, as she outplayed the famous sisters \u2013 one in the semis (Rashida Mutesi), the other, Rukia Nayiga, in a nail-biting penalty shootout finale.<\/p>\n

This is Kisakye\u2019s second major win this year after the PAU Grand Open and only her third individual victory since her Christmas Cup win in 2017.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very happy for this win. Indeed it\u2019s surprising because it\u2019s been long without winning. When I won my first tournament in 2017, I have only struggled to break through coming close most of the times,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Kisakye owes her fortunes to her new management under Nicholas Nsereko whom she says facilitates her training while offering her guidance.<\/p>\n

Kisakye trains at two venues in Kireka at Adi\u2019s Spot and a local bar in Kyaliwajjala near her home.<\/p>\n

Her recent form has been refined by a very supportive environment with her manager Nsereko instilling belief while her closest buddies; Angela Namakula and Brenda Nasasira keep her going.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I won the Grand Open tournament, it was a result of close people that believed in me. I used to fear some opponents but Manager Nicholas has changed my perspective and belief,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Kisakye runs a family-owned boutique at Gazaland, in Kampala City but has daily training for at least three hours before she retires home.<\/p>\n

Early days<\/b><\/p>\n

Kisakye faced initial resistance from her family when she wanted to join pool. Drawing inspiration from her elder brother who used to play pool in Kenya, Kisakye was motivated by the urge to win money.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe used to win a lot of money from playing but he would give me just little of his winnings. I started believing that I could make money if I played the game,\u201d Kisakye said.<\/p>\n

Today she\u2019s more thankful to her family for enjoying the sport she admired at a younger age.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy family has been very supportive. They didn\u2019t want me to play pool because our elder brother was killed because of pool,\u201d she recalls the painful early days.<\/p>\n

Her brother was hit with a black ball following a brawl which left her family in shock.<\/p>\n

She would start to play pool casually in Ntinda in 2014 but didn\u2019t stay long before she returned to Meru, Kenya. Kisakye returned in 2016 and was recruited by Hanz Rugari who enrolled her in Roniz Pool Club.<\/p>\n

She stayed for one season and joined Upper Volta in from where she left to join Scrap Buyers in 2019.<\/p>\n

Strategy<\/b><\/p>\n

Pool’s brilliance lies in the marriage of physical skill and mental fortitude. Great players don’t just fire cues, they visualize shot sequences, factoring in angles, caroms, and cue ball control. This requires focus under pressure to execute precise geometry and \u201cEnglish” (cue ball spin) for strategic advantage. Mind games come into play too, with top players masking their intentions and reading their opponents’ tells. Kisakye\u2019s mental toughness keeps her composed in the face of pressure, allowing her to trust their skills and sink the winning shot.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I go for a timeout, I always use it to reflect on my games and see where to improve. I like to stay alone in timeouts and this has helped me over the years,\u201d she said of her tactics.<\/p>\n

Kisakye faced Mutesi in the Jinja semifinals and then her elder sister Rukia Nayiga in the finals. She says this was a lot of pressure to absorb as she was facing the top players in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a fact, I was under pressure especially when I met Rashida because she\u2019s a good finisher. Something kept telling me that I was going to beat her because her form has been poor lately. For Rukia, honestly, it was supposed to be her day but unfortunately she lost.<\/p>\n

Some people had criticized Kisakye for winning the Grand Open while Mutesi was away.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis makes the Jinja victory sweeter because some fans undermined my win in Kansanga. I felt so happy when I won in Jinja with her in the tournament,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

Winning edge<\/b><\/p>\n

Kisakye won the final on penalties, the first time ever penalties were used to decide the winner. She says that moment required her to calm down in front of her fans whom she says didn\u2019t want to disappoint them.<\/p>\n

She looks at the final game in Jinja as her toughest match in the tournament. Kisakye won on penalties scoring all chances apart from one when she sank the cue ball.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe final was very tough because I never broke away from her. I had to equalize most of the time. Even the last game where I had five minutes, if I had not scored an A, the rest would have been history. Indeed God helped me that day because I had never played penalties. I have never trained them. I had been playing speed pool in training,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

New queen on the throne<\/b><\/p>\n

Since the Pool Queen championship was started in 2009, only seven women have won the title and now Kisakye is the new Queen on the throne. Mutesi has won it twice, so has Jacinta Kajubi while Victoria Namuyanja is the greatest of all time with three titles. The other winners are Angela Busingye (2015), Carol Kanzira (2013), Brenda Tendo (2010) and the inaugural winner Winnie Tushabe.<\/p>\n

Kisakye said this is a very important victory in her career.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis win puts me among the list of historical pool players in Uganda. I had never won any PAU event back-to-back and nothing beats this feeling,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She wants to focus on more victories, especially the World Championships and the National Open.<\/p>\n

The Blackball World Pool Championships will be held in Bridlington Spa, England from October 11 to 20, 2024. This international competition features individual and team competitions from countries all over the world. Kisakye wants to give it her best while also focusing on winning the car at the the Nile Special National Open which will climax in Lugogo Indoor Stadium in November. Kisakye has participated in two National Open grand finals finishing eighth in 2018 and third last year.<\/p>\n

Challenging the boys’ club<\/b><\/p>\n

Pool’s image of guys unwinding reflects reality. Though enjoyed by all, it’s a male-dominated sport. Participation leans heavily towards men, with some surveys showing over 70% of players being male. Professional tournaments often have few female competitors, and the traditional bar setting can be unwelcoming to some women.<\/p>\n

A lack of role models also deters women.<\/p>\n

Although some organizations like Women in Billiards are creating a more inclusive environment paving the way for talented players, pool still has a gender gap.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a chance to keep challenging that notion. Pool is universal. I have benefitted as a person. Pool has changed a lot. After football, pool looks like the most popular sport in Uganda,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Winning in pool can be a game-changer for female players. Victories boost confidence, shattering stereotypes and inspiring others. Success unlocks opportunities like sponsorships and elevates the player\u2019s profile. Most importantly, female winners become role models, pushing for gender equality and a more diverse and competitive sport. While winning isn’t everything, it’s a powerful tool for women in pool to earn a living.<\/p>\n

For Kisakye, the sport has enabled her to acquire two pool tables that are stationed in Iganga from which she gets daily income.<\/p>\n

\u201cPool is a big part of my life. I can\u2019t live without pool. It\u2019s part of me. I have travelled with the national team and now I look at getting a bigger arena in Kampala,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
