Kitara Football Club is shifting its focus on the new Uganda Premier League season.


Yesterday Kitara clinched their inaugural FUFA Big League championship with a 1-0 victory over Kaaro Karungi.

Midfielder Paul Mucureezi scored the pivotal goal that propelled Kitara Football Club to claim the Big League title and secure their return to Uganda Premier League after spending no less than two seasons in the ranks of the FUFA Big League. The Hoima-based side was relegated at the end of the 2020/21 season, which was abruptly curtailed due to the disruptive impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic.

They return with a pedigree after running an undefeated streak on their home turf at Kigaya Grounds, amassing an impressive tally of 61 league points, placing them a mere one point ahead of the commendable runners-up, Mbarara City FC.

NEC FC secured the third spot in the Uganda Premier League with a definitive 4-1 triumph over Kataka. This victory propelled them three points ahead of Police FC, who finished fourth after a 1-1 draw against Jinja North FC.
