No disturbance from anyone and the host community is very friendly with them.

On Sunday 2 August 2020, the footballers drown from many villages in Umuaka held a friendly football match between All Stars Football Club Uba and All Stars Football Club.

While speaking with an Umuaka Times reporter who visited the facility, the two captains of the football clubs, Captain Okoro Chidiebere from All Stars FC Uba and Captain Ekene Obi from All Stars FC were very happy to receive the reporter. They told Umuaka Times that nobody is funding or assisting their trainings. They regretted that Rev Father Eburuaja is no longer in the parish because according to them, he is the father of many football clubs in Umuaka.  They showed optimism that Father Eburuaja will come to their aid the moment he arrives Nigeria.

The captains used the opportunity to call on all sports lovers in the community to assist them in any way they can so as to create a new era of acclaimed footballers from Umuaka when the current professional footballers from the community retire.
