All of Uganda Cup past winners

The Uganda Cup is Uganda’s premier knockout tournament that was first organised by FUFA in 1971, replacing the Kabaka’s Cup, inaugurated in 1925 and later renamed Luwangula Cup.

Between 1992 and 2010 the Uganda Cup was known as the Kakungulu Cup in honour of a former Uganda Football Association (UFA) vice president, Prince Badru Kakungulu Wasajja. He was a great promoter, financier and ambassador of the game of football as well.

This annual competition is open for non league sides, registered clubs playing in all the five football divisions (Div I, II, III,Iv and V) of  the Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA).

The winner of the competition represents Uganda in the CAF Confederations Cup and CECAFA Nile Basin Cup Winners Cup (maiden edition 2014)
