All 16 Uganda Premier League (UPL) sides have confirmed head coaches ahead of the highly anticipated 2025-26 campaign.
This is in line with the club licensing regulations required to have coaches holding a minimum of a CAF A licence.
The development was confirmed via the FUFA official website today, Wednesday, August 13, 2025.
“All UPL clubs are required to have head coaches holding a minimum CAF A license,” the statement partly reads.
The development enforced by FUFA is meant to raise coaching standards, improve the quality of play and meet professional requirements.
