The Serengeti Boys compete in Group B alongside Uganda, Djibouti, Sudan and Burundi, with Group A featuring Ethiopia, Somalia, Kenya, South Sudan and Rwanda. Moriss reported that his players have adjusted well to conditions and maintain strong spirits heading into competition. The tournament sends two semifinalists from each group to the under-17 Africa Cup of Nations finals. Tanzania finished as runners-up at last year's regional championship after surrendering a lead in a loss to Uganda at Hamz Stadium. The coach praised the Tanzania Football Federation's efforts in youth development, noting that organizational support has positioned young players for future success. [/QUOTE]
