This is the most exciting thing I have watched today, seeing you Danny in my home town, Nyahururu, where I was born and brought up shooting in the stadium I have grown up playing basketball, it wouldn't have dawned to me as a subscriber and a lover of your work that one day you would be in my home town, this is just an amazing opportunity for those girls have gotten to showcase what they do and having it documented. Thanks Danny for that, it's inspirational and welcome back.
