Golola Steps In: URA FC Appoints Interim Coach After Isabirye Exit .

Edward Golola, a seasoned Ugandan coach with impressive credentials, has taken over URA FC on an interim basis following the departure of Alex Isabirye.

Golola, who previously led Vipers SC to two Uganda Premier League titles (2008, 2009/10) and the Uganda Cup (2016), will steer the team in their Match Day 8 fixture against Buhimba Saints on November 26 at Hamz Stadium, Nakivubo.

His experience includes winning three Buganda regional titles, nine National Secondary School crowns, and the Pilsner Super 8 trophy (2017/18).

A respected tactician, Golola is expected to bring stability to URA FC, currently 11th in the 2025/26 Uganda Premier League with 8 points from 7 games.

The club will soon announce a permanent head coach. URA FC thanks Isabirye and his staff for their service and wishes them well in the future.
