URA FC have confirmed their full technical and support team following the return of head coach Sam Ssimbwa, as the Tax Collectors seek to build on their impressive start under the experienced tactician.
Ssimbwa was appointed on October 28, 2026, replacing Jimmy Mwera Kintu, and has made an immediate impact, guiding URA to three consecutive victories against UPDF FC, defending champions Vipers SC and Kataka FC.
The former Uganda Cranes assistant coach has assembled a technical team comprising several trusted members, while the club has also retained key personnel to ensure continuity within its football operations.
Paul Kiwanuka Kakande has joined as assistant coach, with Ayub Balyejusa taking up the role of fitness coach. Sebale Abdul Kigenyi has also come on board as a goalkeeping coach.
The new technical setup further includes statisticians Lwanga Stephen Mboma and William Nakibinge Blasio, who will work alongside retained statistician Ismael Sserebe.
Meanwhile, Manko Kaweesa and Joshua Kigozi have maintained their positions in the fitness department, while Ssebagala Swaib continues as part of the goalkeeping department.
The club has also retained its junior team technical personnel, with Allan Jemba serving as coach and Allan Owiny as goalkeeping coach.
In the medical department, team doctor Joseph Lubega and physiotherapist Isaac Ngondwe will continue overseeing the players’ medical needs, recovery and rehabilitation.
Kit managers Ronald Luggya and Otim Bosco complete the confirmed technical and support structure.
The confirmation comes at a promising time for the Tax Collectors, who appear to have found renewed momentum under Ssimbwa following a difficult start to the campaign.
His three successive victories have provided an early boost as URA look to climb the Uganda Premier League table and establish themselves among the season’s contenders.
The blend of new appointments and retained personnel is expected to provide stability and strengthen the club’s preparations as the campaign progresses.
