FUFA Super Cup Date Revealed
FUFA has confirmed that this year’s Super Cup will be played on 22nd August 2026 at Hamz Nakivubo Stadium, kicking off at 7pm.
The confirmation came in a letter dated 1st August from FUFA Competitions Director Shawn Mubiru to Kitara FC CEO Joshua Atugonza, setting up a clash between league champions Vipers SC and Uganda Cup holders Kitara in the traditional curtain raiser to the new season.
FUFA also reminded Kitara to ensure full compliance with club licensing standards, alongside the usual sporting and administrative preparations expected of a UPL club.
The reminder comes after Kitara was left off the provisional 2026/27 StarTimes Uganda Premier League fixtures released on Friday night, along with five other sides.
Kitara are determined to leave nothing to chance on that front. Improvements at the Royals Park Butema is on going, with the club confident the ground will meet the required standards well ahead of the 25th August deadline.
For now, attention turns to Hamz Nakivubo, where Kitara begin their FUFA Super 8 campaign before the Super Cup date with Vipers later this month. Two shots at silverware, and a club chasing its first taste of either trophy.
