The Manager Morley Byekwaso caught up with this website ahead of #KCCAWGFC;

Morley Byekwaso

We need to end the season well. We are at home and a win at home would be something great for our stakeholders.

As we end the season, we take away lessons with us and we know that we need to improve our finishing as a team, technique under pressure and game management. If we organize in those areas then we will be able to compete favorably. We will miss Achai, Magambo, Mwanje and Kaddu due to injuries and illness. They join the players that have been missing games regularly due to injuries. We welcome Kasirye back to the squad after he missed the previous game against Gaddafi due to an ankle problem.
