Kampala Queens got off the mark with a 1-0 win over She Corporate in the Finance Trust Bank FUFA Women Super League encounter at the MUBS Arena in Nakawa.
The victory was orchestrated by newly appointed skipper Shamirah Nalugya as early as the 6th minute.
Nalugya scored directly from a corner kick which was not well dealt with by the She Corporate goalkeeper Molly Naava.
The Queens of Soccer had their work well cut out in the second half as they managed to neutralize any threats from their rivals.
