“I also want to thank my teammates who enabled me to win this award, now I want to double my efforts and end the year with bigger numbers,” Kambale said.

Kambale featured in all the five league outings and scored four goals and adding an assist in the process. The forward kicked off his goal feast on match day 9 at home against Mbarara City FC as the Red Eagles won 2-0 with Kambale and Lwesibawa scoring.

He then scored the only goal again at home on match day 11 against Gaddafi FC heading home Sadiq Ssekyembe’s corner kick but it was on the last game at home of the year that he made it count notching a brace against Busoga United FC to take his tally to four in the month.
