KAMPALA. The Ngo League, a competition played by alumni of Namilyango College enters its third round of play today at Acorns International School, Kisaasi but it already feels like the establishment is scoring good grades.

With 10 sides from cohorts that treaded the college`s paths, The first two rounds have given a bit of everything expected from fulfilled Sunday league. The unforgiving Hornbills lead with a clean slate of four wins from as many games to collect 12 points. Perhaps they boost the advantage of enjoying their industrious years having left school in 2013. Today offers another outing of what is slowly growing into a juggernaut as league chairman and Gonyaama FC captain William Owagage predicts.

“The start has been good considering the turn up has been bigger than we had projected, we expected to be up there with time,” Owagage told Sunday Monitor. “The spirits are also high with everyone desperate to leave a mark,” he added. After the games, the 10 sides face off in a quiz at the Infinity Cafe and Lounge, Ntinda.

Action has come in all packages as the old boys fight for bragging rights in the debut season. As Hornbills lead, the chasing pack led by FC Butida on 10 points cannot afford to give up yet with more rounds left. Dream Team FC have suffered a goal drought and remain the only side yet to find the back of the net, static they would love to cleanse themselves off this afternoon.
