History[]

2018–19[]

With three months left in the 2018–19 FUFA Big League season, Kyetume FC hired coach Allen Kabonge on a three month contract to push for promotion. Kabonge is best known for taking four different second division Ugandan sides to the top flight.[2]

Kyetume eventually qualified for the FUFA Big League playoffs. Robert Ssentongo scored a hat trick for Kyetume in the promotion playoff finals, which the club won 4–1 over Kansai Plascon, earning them a spot in the Ugandan top flight for the first time in their history.[3][1]

Kyetume hired George "Best" Nsinga to be their coach for the 2019–20 top flight season.[4] Jackson Mayanja currently serves as their head coach.[5]

Ground[]

Kyetume plays at the Nakisunga Saaza Ground, which has a capacity of about 1,000.[6]
