Mr. Gerald Kasozi Wasswa is our new patron who fills the vacuum left by the late Balamaze Lwanga
Missaga used the opportunity to salute the great effort for the previous gallant leaders of the club.
SC Villa is a like monument. You can not under look that value. When dusty, you just clean off the dust.
SC Villa has had so many excelling leaders as Faisal Ddamulira and Balamaze Lwanga as former patrons as well as past presidents Patrick Kawooya and Franco Mugabe
In a special way, he hinted on the pillars of good leadership which takes the shape of legislature (patroon-ship), Executive (presidency), Judiciary (law making body).
The new club patron Kasozi is a famous educationist and proprietor of the Bright Grammar School in Masaka.

“SC Villa is not a new club to me. I have been with the club in good and bad moments. I have been a fan for the club. SC Villa is my blood. I will dedicate my leisure time to SC Villa”.
Kasozi fills the void left by former patron Charles Balamaze Lwanga who died in 2011.
