FUFA Big League: Ndejje University FC and Calvary FC escape relegation on the final day

By Edward Tumusiime

The 2021 FUFA Big League season came to an end on Sunday 13^th May 2021 with eight games on the matchday fixture.

With the final decision still to be made on the teams in the relegation zone, Ndejje University and Calvary FC made their way out of the relegation by drawing and winning their last games respectively in the fixture.

Ndejje University was in the 7^th position with 13 points from 13 games before the last game, one point behind the 5^th and 6^th teams but due to a better goal difference after the goalless draw with Luweero United FC they moved to the 6^th position.

Water FC and Kigezi HomeBoyz FC all lost their games on the last day which gave Ndejje University an advantage.

On the other hand, Calvary FC left it on the last day as well after their win against Gaddafi FC at the Greenlight Stadium.

They finished in the 6^th position on the Elgon group table, this followed a draw between the 7^th placed Mbale Heroes FC and the 5^th placed Kataka FC.

As it stands due to the cancellation of the regional leagues, teams in the relegation zone still have a chance to remain in the FUFA Big League for the 2021/22 season as the official communication is yet to be made.
