The teams were divided into groups of five to six teams but the top two would qualify for the playoffs, from where the winners went into the finals played on a neutral ground.<\/p>\n<p>In 2015, Kawempe beat She Corporate and Buikwe She Red Stars at Nakivubo in the playoff semis and finals respectively. In 2016, they beat Uganda Christian University (UCU) Lady Cardinals in the semis and She Corporate on penalties in the finals in Nakivubo.<\/p>\n<p>In the 2016\/17 season, they beat Olila in the semis then UCU in finals in Wankulukuku while the 2017\/18 playoffs, where they beat Kampala Queens in the semis and Olila High School in the finals were held at MTN Omondi Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>The 2019\/20 season was supposed to be played over three rounds; home and away for the first two then the teams with better head-to-head records in each meeting would then host the third round.<\/p>\n<p>The 2021 season was held at Fufa Technical Centre, Njeru. The 2021\/22 season was the first one to be played and decided on a home and away basis. She Corporate won the trophy on the final day of the season at home (Makerere University Business School, Nakawa).<\/p>\n<p>Kampala Queen also had an opportunity to lift the title in front of their fans last season. Kawempe will be yearning for the same although the bulk of them might miss the match as it happens on the morning of the day most of the students report back to school.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are here because we want to win the title and we will do everything possible to achieve that,\u201d assistant coach Moses Nkata said after they beat Asubo Ladies in the penultimate match last weekend.<\/p>\n<p><b>Where Kawempe Muslim won their FWEL titles<\/b><\/p>\n<p>2015: Kawempe 3-2 Buikwe She Red Stars, Nakivubo<\/p>\n<p>2016: Kawempe 0 (4) \u2013 0 (2) She Corporate, Nakivubo<\/p>\n<p>2016\/17: UCU Lady Cardinals 0-4 Kawempe, Wankulukuku<\/p>\n<p>2017\/18: Kawempe 1-0 Olila HS, MTN Omondi Lugogo<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
