Rwanda international cricketer Cathia Uwamahoro has signed a deal to become Valiant brand ambassador in Rwanda for the next two years, effective this month.

Valiant is an Indian sportswear and equipment brand, including cricket gear.

“Being ambassador of Valiant Worldwide is something anyone would be grateful for. I am not taking it for granted and to me, it is just one way of showcasing my talent in this particular game as well as getting exposed to opportunities out there,” she says.

Speaking to Weekend Sport this week, Uwamahoro explained that for the start, she will have access to modern cricket equipment and kits as both parties continue to explore how to include a monetary prize for her services in the future.
