KAMPALA- After her exploits in the 2015 season, it was perhaps prudent enough to have Claire Lamunnu as one of the captains for the fifth season of Friday Nights Lights (FNL) that tips off this evening at YMCA.

Lamunnu who helped the Gazelles win the Zone V championships as well as guiding KCCA Leopards to the league title will make her bow along nine other captains at the fun filled tournament increased to 10 teams.

In one of eight games on card, a game between Team Blick and the Legends’ team will get action underway at the eight week Castle Lite sponsored tournament.

Lamunnu, the other ladies captain besides Maureen Amoding will thereafter lead her side against team Koma while Team Ikong winners of three of the first four seasons play the last game on the night against Team Duxx.

Apart from more fun games, the winners’ cash prize has now increased from Shs3 to Shs5m for the overall winners with the second placed team getting Shs 3 million.
