Vipers Sports Club has publicly declared their stance by confirming they will not take part in the upcoming Uganda Premier League fixture against Kitara FC. The club released a formal statement on Thursday, October 2, 2025, via its official website, just one day before the match was set to occur. The decision marks a significant escalation in the ongoing tensions between the club and the league’s governing body, FUFA.
The statement emphasizes Vipers’ opposition to the proposed double-header format, which they argue undermines the integrity of the competition. The club, based in Kitende, has consistently voiced concerns over the changes, with this latest action underscoring their frustration with how FUFA has addressed their grievances. Vipers reiterated their commitment to fair play and transparent governance, calling for a league structure that respects all stakeholders.
In closing remarks, the club expressed appreciation for its supporters, fans, and partners who have stood by them in their pursuit of equitable practices in Ugandan football. The boycott has sparked widespread discussion about the future of the UPL and the balance of power between clubs and administrative authorities.
