The club had earlier been forced to shift to Kavumba Recreation Ground in Kampala after their own Barifa Stadium failed the licensing test but they have now confirmed another venue in West Nile.
The club announced on Tuesday night that they will be moving to Paridi Stadium, which has been undergoing a facelift.
