Asaph Mwebaze is back into top flight management following the former Maroons boss’ appointment as Soltilo Bright Stars coach.

He has penned a three-year-contract, succeeding Paul Kiwanika, who handled the club on an interim basis in the final part of last season.

“We are delighted to be bringing a coach of Asaph’s experience and education to the club,” said Grace Kwizera, one of the club directors.

“He knows our expectations and those of our fans.

“We know he can play a lead role in taking the club to the levels we demand.”

Mwebaze is a CAF B coaching license holder and has been given an opportunity to name his backroom staff.

Bright Stars spent last season battling relegation.

Mwebaze will hope to fight a different battle this time round.
