Kitara Football Club has formalized a significant partnership with Uganda Women’s Super League entity, Lady Doves FC, marking a pivotal moment for both clubs as they expand their footballing horizons. The memorandum of understanding was ceremoniously signed at Golden Castle Hotel in Hoima City, solidifying a collaborative effort aimed at enhancing football development across the region.
Under the terms of the agreement, Lady Doves FC assumes the role of Kitara’s official women’s team for all future engagements sanctioned by FUFA, CAF, and FIFA. This strategic alignment not only strengthens Kitara’s organizational structure but also fulfills essential criteria outlined in the Confederation of African Football (CAF) and Uganda Premier League club licensing regulations.
Kitara’s path to the CAF Confederation Cup was paved by their recent triumph in the 2023/24 Stanbic Uganda Cup, highlighting their competitive prowess and ambitions on the continental stage. Meanwhile, Lady Doves FC, based in Masindi district and known for their competitive spirit, concluded the previous season in the Uganda Women’s Super League with a commendable 4th-place finish.
With preparations underway for upcoming campaigns, both Kitara FC and Lady Doves FC are poised to leverage this partnership to foster talent development, community engagement, and competitive success.
