Japan Gateball Union (JGU) donated a set of gateball equipment to the Olympic Youth Development Center and polo shirts to schools and various sports clubs in Zambia though the Sport for Tomorrow, a project promoted by the Japanese government, to which JGU belongs as a member of its consortium.

Let us share the report on the bestowal ceremony which we received from NOWSPARS, an NGO supporting the sports activities by Zambian women.
