Big League, Women's Premier League kick-offs get Fufa nod

The Federation of Uganda Football Associations has authorised the beginning of the remaining leagues.

The Ugandan Premier League started in December 2020 while the lower competitions were put on hold for a while. The delay was occasioned by the need to have adequate preparations that would adhere to the coronavirus safety protocols.

"The Fufa Executive has authorised the kickoff of the Fufa Second Division League [the StarTimes Big League), Fufa Women Super League, Fufa Women Elite League, the Stanbic Uganda Cup and The Fufa Drum," the federation announced.
