KCCA will display logo of “Visit Kampala” on the front part of their jerseys in place of usual “StarTimes” during the CAF Champions League group matches.
CAF’s General Secretary Amr Fahmy has given the Ugandan champions, who made the request, the green light to make the change.
“Reference to the request sent by your club KCCA concerning the publicity of “Visit Kampala” on the front of the players’ jerseys, kindly be informed that the club is authorized to put the above-mentioned publicity during the matches of the Total CAF Champions League 2018 on the front of the players’ jerseys,” Amr responded.
Chinese pay TV giants, StarTimes, is KCCA’s main sponsor, however, display of their logo during the matches would be in conflict with the tournament’s commercial interests against regulations.
“Visit Kampala” is the official travel guide to Uganda’s capital Kampala and a product of Kampala Capital City Authority which is the sole owner and guarantor of KCCA.
KCCA, who qualified for the Champions League group phase for the first time, are pooled alongside two times champions Esperance de Tunis, record eight times winners Al Ahly and Township Rollers in group A.
The matches begin early May with KCCA traveling to Botswana to face Rollers on 4th in their group opener.
