Currently, the tournament has reached the quarter finals with only 8 teams left that is; last year’s runners up Ffumbe, Record holders Mmamba Gabunga, Mmamba Kakoboza, Butiko, Nkima, Mpindi, Mbogo and Charles Ayiekoh’s coached team of Ngo.
Defending champions Nte who lost to Ngo on penalty kicks had their hopes of retaining the title perish away after seeing their petition dismissed by the Bika football committee early this week.
The quarter finals will kick off on Monday 9th July with two fixtures, Ffumbe takes on Butiko while Mmamba Gabunga will be playing against Nkima at 2pm and 4pm at Muteesa II Stadium Wankulukuku.
On Wednesday 11th July, Mbogo will play Mmamba Kakoboza while Ngo will face off with Mpindi at the same venue.
Nte won last year’s tournament after edging Ffumbe 1-0 courtesy of Umar Kasumba’s first half goal at the Bukalasa technical institute in Luwero district.
