Buweekula’s Historic Win

The victory brings an end to Buweekula’s wait, having lost two previous finals in 2012 and 2022. Coach Felix Ssekabuzza made history as the first-ever coach to lift the Masaza Cup title for Buweekula.

Notably, Ssekabuzza had a disappointing outing last year, losing in the semifinals to Kyagwe.
