By Michael Ainomugisha UCU 68–57 KIU (1-0) Uganda Christian University Lady Canons kicked off their National Basketball League play-offs with a convincing 68-57 victory over…
The semester kicked off on Wednesday, August 27, at the university’s main campus in Mukono and is scheduled to run until late December.
The evening programme, which resumes with the September 2025 intake, will cover most courses, including Business, Information Technology, and Social Sciences. However, Education and Theology courses will not be offered under the arrangement.
It was a sweet victory for the Mukono-based side since they had lost to the Lady Doves 3-0 a week ago in the FUFA Women Super League.
With the FUFA Women’s Super League coming to an end, the UCU Lady Cardinals are in an unsafe position, currently ranked ninth in the league with only 14 points and two matches remaining. Despite recently winning the FUFA Women’s Cup, there are still worries over whether their cup success can translate into league survival.
It is the Trinity semester at Uganda Christian University (UCU), different from the ones before, coming right at the peak of the year. It is the perfect moment to check in on the goals we set at the beginning of the year.
Lady Cardinals made a double change introducing Sandra Kisakye and Meble Kusasira for Winfred Atimango and Peace Aloyo.
UCU Canons returned to winning ways with a remarkable 92-72 victory against Power in a National Basketball League encounter at Lugogo Arena.
“We learned early that relationships would be the key to the success of the program,” said Mark Bartels, now executive director of a USA-based nonprofit, Uganda Partners. “Beyond the essential rapport with the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities (CCCU) and UCU was that the program provided relationships with other students, host families, faculty members and supervisors – primarily Ugandans.”
