“As Fufa, we are happy with StarTimes for ensuring league is up and running even during the Covid times,” Kiiza saide before adding.

“For now, we shall have 200 spectators in stadiums. However they are restricted on movement in the stadium.”

“We are still discussing internally and with government whether vaccinated people are just allowed to watch games but as of now, PCR test is a must for zones 1 and 2.”

“Nevertheless, clubs must have clearance from FA if they want to have fans and must follow all guidelines and protocols as per Ministry of Health and the World Health Organisation.”

The campaign will kick off on October 15th with reigning champions Express FC taking on Arua Hills.
