UCU Doves and Lady Doves are charging forward with renewed determination. Both teams finished the first round in a competitive fifth place in the 10-team league and are now aiming for a top-four finish and a play-off berth.

UCU has added three new faces to strengthen key areas of the team. Point guard Mariam Namukwaya joins from Miracle Eaglets and is expected to add depth and control to the backcourt.

The Uganda Christian University (UCU) Doves have defended their gold title at the Association of Uganda University Sports (AUUS) games. The victory came after the Doves dealt a huge blow on their final opponents, Kampala University (KU) by winning the first three sets consecutively. 

UCU Angels with a margin of 20 points booked their netball final spot as they outshone Makerere University on a slippery Court after a heavy downpour in Mukono in the afternoon hours.

In what looked like a fully dominated game by UCU, who tussled it out with MUBS, ended in a thrilling 80-51 win for Canons, with an exceptional performance of the afternoon.

UCU Doves scored 25-13 in the first set, 25-20 in the second set, and 25-19 in the final set to leave no stone unturned for Makerere University.

UCU Angels once more stormed with a strong performance by edging SLAU four quarters win to nil. They won the first quarter 08- 05, second quarter 14- 09, third quarter 22- 12 and the fourth and final quarter 31- 16.
