Lady Doves have to wait a little longer to get on the long road to the inaugural season of the Caf Women’s Champions League, but when that time comes, they will not treat their participation in this bit of history as an occasion.
The Masindi-based side earned their place to the zonal qualifiers of the continental showpiece as winners of the 2021 Fufa Women Super League and, as history has showed us, there will certainly be no pressure on a Ugandan team going to the big times for the first time.

This year’s Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup will be for players falling in the U23 Category. Uganda will field predominantly the U20 team that reached the final of the Africa Cup U20 tournament in Mauritania. The decision to have the U23 players for this tournament was reached during the Cecafa Exco meeting held on 11th March 2021 at Sofitel Hotel, Morocco.
The Federation further confirmed that there will be no change in the head coach role for the team. Morley Byekwaso, who is currently serving the Ugandan Premier League side Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) FC on an interim basis, will lead the technical bench.
