The Buganda Region League 2025-26 season finally came to an end today with a finale worthy of the campaign. All season the title race had been building toward one decisive clash, and Buwambo United Football Club delivered when it mattered most.

The highly anticipated match was between Buwambo United Football Club and UWA Football Club.

It was a physical match and closely contested match, with both sides leaving everything on the pitch. Defenses were organized, tackles flew in, and chances were at a premium as the weight of the title pushed both teams to the limit.

Buwambo United Football Club finished the job after defeating UWA Football Club 1-0 courtesy of Abubakali Kalungi’s solitary strike 10 minutes after the restart of the second stanza to send fans wild. The goal came at the perfect moment, breaking the deadlock and shifting the momentum decisively in Buwambo’s favor as the home support erupted.

Both teams went into this match tied on points, 64 each, but Buwambo needed nothing less than a win in this encounter to lift the trophy. That pressure seemed to sharpen their focus after halftime, and Kalungi’s composed finish proved the difference between champions and runners-up.

UWA Football Club will again have to regroup and fight for the 2026-27 season champion. Despite falling short on the day, their consistency throughout the season deserves credit, and they will return next campaign with unfinished business.

It was a highly attended match in terms of the number of fans as per regional league standards. The stands were packed, the chants never stopped, and the atmosphere reflected just how much this title meant to the community.

Buwambo United will now face the champions of Kampala Region League in the inter-region promotional playoff, which is Black Stars FC. The next step is promotion to a higher tier which is big league, and Buwambo will carry the momentum of this title win into that crucial playoff battle.
