Founded on 1st April 2011, Wrexham Uganda Football Club has continued to garner steam.
On Saturday, 4th April 2026, the entity marked a major milestone – 15 incredible years of nurturing young talent and fostering community spirit.
The celebrations were held at the club offices in Kawempe Ttula Kirokole zone, Kampala.
The atmosphere was electric as children, parents, and supporters gathered to celebrate this remarkable achievement.
The celebrations were a treat for the kids, with an array of goodies including cake, sweets, juices, and sodas.
The highlight of the day was the unveiling of the new anniversary kit, generously sponsored by the Wrexham Supporters Federation and WFSAU Fundraising Lottery Bonus Ball.
The WFSAU Fundraising Lottery Bonus Ball is led by the patrons Mrs Dionne Bhalla and family, Mr David Mainwaring and family, Mr Richard John Mathew, Mr Ian Parry, Mr Ian Macgregor and family as well as Uncle Denis Taylor (rest in peace).
A goat was also donated for a fun-filled feast, adding to the excitement.
