The Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) is the official governing body of football in Uganda. It is responsible for organizing, promoting, and regulating the sport across the country, from grassroots development to professional leagues and national teams. FUFA was founded in 1924 and later became affiliated with global football authorities like FIFA and the Confederation of African Football. This affiliation allows Uganda to participate in international competitions such as the Africa Cup of Nations and World Cup qualifiers. One of FUFA’s key roles is managing the national teams, including the men’s senior team known as the Uganda Cranes. The organization also oversees women’s football, youth teams, and development programs aimed at nurturing young talent across the country.
