Uganda boxing federation president Moses Muhangi in his capacity as an International technical officer was among others the chief facilitator.
Tony Ssekabira (Coach), Steven Fula Achiga (RJ), Moses Mugaga (RJ) were the other facilitators.
The workshop aimed at fine tuning referees and Judges in decision making, scoring systems, Bouts review, fouls called, cautions, warnings and disqualification.
