About Us

Welcome to the Uganda Khokho Federation

Founded in 2022 after the COVID-19 lockdown, the Uganda Khokho Federation (UKKF) is the official governing body for the promotion and development of Kho Kho in Uganda. Established by visionary pioneers like Nsubuga Mustapha, Oroma Sharon, and Mpoza Dennis, who received training in India, the Federation began its journey in Butambala District with 35 trained coaches and officials. Since then, Kho Kho has expanded to regions such as Bunyoro, Teso, and Sebei, capturing the hearts of Ugandans and fostering a spirit of teamwork, agility, and competitive excellence. Anchored by the tagline “Kho Kho Anywhere, Kho Kho Everywhere,” UKKF is steadfast in its mission to nurture and professionalize this traditional sport across the nation.
