By Kayiira Jackson
The 2026 USSSA Kampala Regional Qualifiers reached a decisive turning point on Day Two, with Lubiri Secondary School and Buziga Theological Institute confirming their places in the quarterfinals as the group stage edges closer to completion.
Lubiri SS have been the standout performers in Group C, winning all four of their matches to seal early qualification. Their latest statement came in a 2-0 victory over City High School, with Marith Abuyi and James Ssali on target. They also cruised past Kyambogo College 3-0 to maintain a flawless run.
In Group A, Buziga Theological Institute joined them in the last eight after winning three consecutive matches, underlining their consistency and strength heading into the knockout phase with a last group stage fixture to spare.
Uganda Martyrs High School continued their fine form with a 2-0 win over Kololo SS, courtesy of goals from Kalyesubula James and Kavuma Medie though they face a must win fixture tomorrow if they’re to book a place in quarters. Kololo SS, however, responded with a narrow 1-0 victory against Bishop Kihangire, thanks to Josiah Grace lone strike.

Bishop Cyprian Kihangire also impressed with a 3-1 win over Caltec Academy, while Buziga Islamic overcame the same opponents by a similar margin in another fixture.
