The Uganda Cup and StarTimes Uganda Premier League winners will represent Uganda in the CAF Champions League.

As revealed earlier by Pulse Uganda Sports, Vipers Sports Club summoned players to report to Kitende by July 26 ahead of the 2023/24 season.

Indeed, several Venoms stars have reported Monday, at the St Mary’s Stadium, Kitende, for the 2023/24 pre-season.

Several players arrived at the facility, including Bright Anukani, Dan Sserunkuma, Livingstone Mulondo, and Youngman Marvin Joseph.

The Uganda Cup and StarTimes Uganda Premier League winners will represent Uganda in the CAF Champions League.

Vipers made their maiden CAF Champions League group stage appearance last season after successfully eliminating Central African Republic giant Olympique Real de Bangui and Democratic Republic of Congo champions TP Mazembe in the preliminary qualification rounds.

The Venoms were humbled by continental giants; Horoya AC, Raja Casablanca, and Tanzania giants Simba SC as they salvaged only one point and a goal.

Meanwhile, the StarTimes Uganda Premier League kick-off has been set for September 5, giving the Venoms two months to prepare.

The second-tier league, FUFA Big League, will kick off on September 14 and the FUFA Women Super and Elite leagues on September 24 and October 22, respectively.

The tentative fixtures will be released on July 31, and the final on August 5.
