The King’s Baton X Rwandan Tradition Dance (Intore)

The King’s Baton celebrates the rich diversity and vibrant cultures of The Commonwealth. As it travels across nations, it highlights each country’s unique traditions through music, dance, art, and sport, while reminding us of our shared values of unity, respect, and friendship.

The Baton serves as a bridge between cultures, inspiring pride, connection, and appreciation of the Commonwealth’s strength in diversity.

🏀 CGA Rwanda President, Ms. Alice Umulinga, stated:
“The performances we witnessed today are a testament to our readiness to make an impact at Glasgow 2026. I encourage you all to keep training hard and continuously improve your performance, so that one day we can see you shine on global stages.”

She added that the Baton’s message for Rwanda is “Talent”, perfectly aligned with the national vision of empowering young people through sport.

🏀 Mr. Fabrice Uwayo from the Ministry of Sports said:
“You have represented your schools with great spirit and determination. Dream big, push your limits, and make Rwanda proud, just as today’s Baton Bearers have done.”

🏀 Hon. Prudence Sebahizi, Minister of Trade and Industry, reflected on his sports background and urged the youth to remain disciplined, persistent, and to never give up.
