OTHER LEAGUE NEWS

Away from Bunankanda and Salaama FC, Terere FC clearly expressed its intentions on how they are preparing for the league. Speaking to players, they see this league as an opportunity to revenge on Piida FC that defeated them in their last encounter where Piida FC defeated Terere 7-0.

Interacting with local league fans, they mention that they really like the organization of the league and the rules that have been set to guide the games. Ronald, one of local supporters of Terere FC strongly backed the rules and he believes it will preserve the integrity of the game especially among Terere Community.

Terere FC has not been kin on following soccer rules and in some cases, games ended up in chaos this past season. Now that the teams know that they are penalties, including suspension from the league, I am optimistic that there is going to be a high level of restraint and respect during games. – Ronald said.
