The coaches always want to put their best players on the pitch. Therefore you will find so many of them playing a lot continually which takes a huge toll on the body. They play a lot and do very intense training. This is because most of the players and their coaches are under pressure [to deliver]. The results are so many injuries.
Buteme also pointed out how poor training methods by some teams as well as poor diet and conditioning is further harming the players. The poor diet of most Ugandans, the poor conditioning where the body takes more load than it is supposed to, is another challenge, she continued.
