To reach this stage, Adjumani eliminated the tournament’s joint record winners Express 2-0 thanks to goals from Michael Ajiga and Sadick Nasur.
Prior to the historic victory over Express, Adjumani beat Simba, Elite FC and Bunyaruguru United in the previous rounds.
Police also beat Apotuun FC, Pajule Lions, Ndejje University and recently BUL FC in the previous rounds.
The second leg of the encounter will be played on Friday May 26th at Paridi Stadium.
The other semi final has Vipers versus Soltilo Bright Stars with the former hosting the first leg at Kitende.
