Defending champions St. Noa Junior Boarding School have once again asserted their dominance, securing a place in the 2026 Buganda primary schools boys’ football final after a composed 2–0 victory over Good Times Primary School–Kawaala in the semi-finals.

The match, played at Kawanda Secondary School Grounds, saw Umar Muwaya emerge as the hero for the Zana-based side, netting a brilliant brace to guide his team into yet another final.

St. Noa’s disciplined display ensured they maintained their unbeaten run in the tournament.

Earlier in the competition, the reigning champions displayed their attacking prowess with a convincing 4–0 triumph over Twinbrook before settling for a goalless stalemate against St. Patrick in the group stages.

The latest victory marks St. Noa’s third consecutive appearance in the final, having lifted the trophy in both the 2024 and 2025 editions under the stewardship of tactician Ibrahim Muyinda.

In the final showdown, St. Noa will face fellow unbeaten contenders Bright Future Primary School, who edged St. Mary’s Primary School–Namasuba 1–0 in a tightly contested semi-final.

Mologa Mickdad struck the decisive goal to send Bright Future through.

The tournament, which kicked off on Wednesday, March 11, will culminate in the grand finale on Sunday, March 15, at Kawanda Secondary School Grounds.
