Ten time league champions and eight time Uganda Cup winners, Kampala Capital City Authority FC have been drawn in Group C for the CECAFA Kagame Cup that will be hosted by Tanzania from Saturday 18th July -Saturday 2nd August, 2015 in Dar es Salaam. The annual tournament attracted 13 teams from around East Africa.
Group C consists of teams like Tanzania’s Azam FC, Malakia (South Sudan) and Adama City (Ethiopia).
