FUFA has sent URA FC Assistant Coach, Sadick Wassa to Cairo in Egypt to undergo a special training session for the acquisition of the CAF ‘C’ License.
The Federation decision followed the resignation of the club’s substantive head coach Alex Isabirye who had already trained and acquired this qualification.
URA FC is the country’s official representative in this year’s CAF Champions League and it’s mandatory that all participating clubs are coached by holders of a CAF ‘C’ License.
In order to avoid likely negative consequences by the continental body, FUFA acted faster to bridge the gap since it wasn’t clear how soon URA would effect their professional replacement.
In a related development, FUFA wishes to remind individual clubs in the FUFA Super League that their technical bench MUST be headed by a holder of the same coaching qualifications. A decision has already been taken to act against any club that contradicts this directive starting the second round of the ongoing season. The second round starts February 1. Below is the full list of 55 Coaches in Uganda that meet this CAF requirement.
Sam Timbe, Leo Adra, Richard Wasswa, Frank Anyau, Tom Lwanga, Mujib Kasule, Mike Mutebi, Paul Ssali, Jackson Mayanja, Moses Basena, Richard Makumbi, Hadijah Namuyanja, George Ssimwogerere, Sam Ssiimbwa, Steven Kiggundu, Edward Golola, Ibrahim Mugisha, Timothy Ayiekho, Edgar Watson and Vincent Lukyamuzi.
Kintu Paddy Isaac, Daniel Kiwanuka, Tabole Abdu, Kefa Kisala, Mawa Haruna, Christine Wanyama Nakibuuka, Mubiru Abdalla, Nkata Paul, Kaziba Edward, Byuma William, Nyiima Jackson, Nsimbe George William, SSali Tom and Mutyaba Joseph, Alex Gitta, Kyambadde Livingstone, Lutalo George William, Magala James, Ayiekho Charles Lukula and Lucha Mathew.
Others are Bogere Steven, Nankya Immaculate, Byekwaso Morley, Isabirye Alex Musongola, Mutyaba Joseph Harold, Mbalangu Hussein, LUbowa Asuman, Mugerwa Francis, Bisaso Shafiq, Ssebagala Frank, Onen Peter, Sinamakosa Zubedah, Lule Mathias, Namakoola Charles and Majidah Nantanda.
FUFA Super League clubs are advised to cross check the names of their technical staff against this official list.
Meanwhile the 29 coaches who sat for the CAF ‘C’ License course last year will receive their certificates from the Federation headquarters on Wednesday, January, 2013, 10:00am.
