Kyambogo University have fallen victim to hooliganism in Ugandan football. The institution now faces a two-year suspension from the University Football League.

In a statement released by the UFL on Monday: "The UFL Disciplinary Committee has suspended Kyambogo University over incidents of fan hooliganism during their matches. Kyambogo is suspended for two seasons, this season and the next."
