The Women's Uganda Kabaddi League Season 2 will get underway on January 5, 2023.

The inaugural edition of the tournament, which took place in November 2022, saw Angels KC emerge victorious after defeating The Hustlers in the final match. 

While the champions finished second in the group phase with three wins out of four, The Hustlers maintained a 100 per cent record during the group stage with four wins in as many matches.

The second edition will see the same five participants, namely Angels KC, The Hustlers KC, The Eaglets KC, Kkungu KC and Titanic KC battle it out once again for the elusive title.

This time out, the teams will face each other twice in the league phase before the semi-finals, unlike Season 1 where the participating teams faced off once ahead of the knockouts.

Following the conclusion of the league stage on January 24, the two semis will take place on January 27, with the final set to be staged on January 28.
