RWANDA will host next year’s Cecafa/Kagame Club Championship, Times Sport can reveal.

The tournament, whose exact dates are yet to be revealed, was last played in Rwanda back in 2007 when APR coasted to the title under the guidance of Andy Mfutila.

"It’s true that we are hosting the tournament although we still don’t know the exact dates,” the football federation (Ferwafa)’s Chief Executive Officer Jules Kalisa revealed.
Rwanda will be represented by APR and defending champions Atraco.

Atraco became the third local side to win the tournament (after Rayon Sport and APR) after beating home side El Merreikh 1-0.

Hamis Kitagenda’s strike proved the difference between the sides. It was also Sam Timbe’s third Kagame Club Championship triumph after back to back wins with Ugandan sides SC Villa (2005) and Police FC (2006).
