NATIONAL ENTERPRISE CORPORATION FOOTBALL CLUB (NEC FC)

The formation of the football club was initially crafted from the philosophy of having harmonized physical workout sessions amongst the staff of NEC for body fitness. The ideas and ambitions of the members grew bigger leading to formation of football team that started playing friendly matches with established football clubs within Kampala. Over time, the very good results against the opponents triggered members’ consciousness to mobilize and get registered under association football which is competitive under the Federation of Uganda Football Associations. (FUFA).

Registered as NEC FC by FUFA, club’s debut season in the FUFA 5th Division League under the Nakawa Football Association was remarkably sublime and exceptional. NEC FC was subsequently promoted to the 4th Division in the 2018/2019 season.

The 2019/2020 season saw us promoted to the Kampala Regional league after successfully defeating Kasokoso Farmers FC in the Nakawa DFA playoffs.

In the 2020/2021 season, the club encountered the Covid-19 outbreak which halted the season prematurely with the club being 3rd on the table. Owing to that, the top teams of each division, before stoppage, were crowned champions hence respective playoffs and progression thereto.

The Covid-19 outbreak season gave us more time to prepare and come back stronger and it is no surprise that in the 2021/2022 season, the blessing in disguise came to pass when we were crowned Scorpion Group’s champions by the Kampala Regional League. We consequently played against Cobra Group’s champions Water FC successfully and rapped up the promotion to FUFA Big League, with a 1-0-win courtesy of a goal by Gaganga Godfrey.

Promotion to UPL

NEC FC was promoted after collecting 57 points and finishing third on the FUFA Big League table in the 2022-23 season.
