Kisoro-based football club SC Volcanoes have appointed Coach Ssempiija Saddick as their new Head Coach on a one-year contract, as the club steps up preparations for its maiden campaign in the FUFA Big League.
The appointment marks an important milestone for SC Volcanoes, who are set to compete in Uganda’s second-tier football competition for the first time after earning promotion as new entrants.
Coach Ssempiija Saddick will now take charge of the team as they prepare for the challenges that come with competing at a higher level. His immediate task will be to build a competitive squad, establish a clear playing identity and ensure the team is well prepared for the demands of the FUFA Big League.
The one-year deal gives Ssempiija the opportunity to lay the foundations for the club’s ambitions while working with the players to adapt to the increased level of competition. The Big League features several established clubs with considerable experience in Ugandan football, making preparation and consistency crucial for newly promoted sides.
For SC Volcanoes, the appointment is part of a broader effort to strengthen the club ahead of their historic debut season. The Kisoro-based outfit will be aiming to make a strong impression rather than simply participating, with the technical team expected to focus on squad development, tactical organisation and results.
Ssempiija Saddick now begins his tenure at a significant moment in the club’s development. His leadership will be closely watched as SC Volcanoes embark on their first-ever FUFA Big League campaign.
With the new season approaching, attention will now turn to the club’s recruitment plans, preseason preparations and the players who will form the core of the squad.
