Uganda Cubs qualified for the tournament as Cecafa Region champions having defeated Tanzania in the final in Rwanda last year.
Meanwhile, head coach Hamza Lutalo summoned a provisional squad of 41 players that started preparing for the event earlier this month at the FUFA Technical Center in Njeru and he is optimistic that boys will be able to put up good game performance against their rivals in tournament.
