Shockwaves at St Noa Girls FC: Tonny Mawejje Resigns After Two Months | Sbk Sports Mail 

St Noa Girls FC has been thrown into uncertainty following the sudden resignation of head coach Tonny Mawejje , who stepped down after just two months in charge. According to sources, Mawejje cited unprofessional conduct within the club as a key reason for his decision, sending shockwaves through the fledgling side in their debut season in the Finance Trust Bank FUFA Women Super League.

The resignation unfolded immediately after Tuesday’s training session at Africa Bible University, where Mawejje gathered the players to deliver the news in person. Several players were reportedly left in tears as the assistant captain and senior players absorbed the sudden announcement. The emotional scene highlighted the strong connection the coach had built with the squad in a remarkably short period.

Despite his brief tenure, Mawejje had an immediate impact on the team’s performance. Under his guidance, St Noa Girls accumulated 13 points from nine matches, positioning them fourth on the league table, a remarkable feat for a debutant side navigating top-flight competition. Analysts noted that the team’s disciplined performances and defensive organization reflected the coach’s strategic influence.

Mawejje’s final match in charge came last Saturday, a goalless draw against Uganda Martyrs, a result that demonstrated both resilience and consistency. While the draw maintained St Noa’s strong league position, it also marked the end of a short but noteworthy chapter for the coach, who had instilled a sense of belief and stability in the squad.

In his resignation letter, addressed to club president Herbert Patrick Walusimbi and handed to Chief Executive Officer William Ssentumbwe, Mawejje expressed gratitude for the opportunity while emphasizing that stepping aside was in the best interest of both his career and the club. He wrote:

“Please accept this letter as formal notice of my resignation from my position as the Head Coach of St Noa GFC. I appreciate the opportunity I have had while working at St Noa GFC for a short stint, and I feel it’s in the best interest of the team and the whole project of St Noa GFC for me to step aside. This comes after a careful consideration of my career goals and the entire St Noa GFC project ambitions. Thank you for your understanding, and I wish St Noa GFC continued success. I hope our paths cross again in the future.”

Adding to the upheaval, it has emerged that assistant coach Vicent Kayizi has also stepped down, leaving the club without its key technical leadership. This unexpected dual departure has sparked concern among players, management, and fans alike, particularly with St Noa set to face She Maroons in their next fixture on matchday ten of the league.

The timing of the resignations presents both a challenge and a test of resilience for St Noa Girls. While the team has shown promise in their debut season, maintaining focus and morale in the absence of their technical leaders will require strong internal leadership from senior players and a collective sense of responsibility on the field.

St Noa’s management has yet to announce replacements for either the head coach or assistant coach roles, leaving speculation rife about potential candidates and the future direction of the club. Decisions made in the coming days will be critical, as the squad navigates a transitional period amid a competitive league campaign.

Though his time at St Noa was brief, Mawejje’s influence is likely to have a lasting effect. His professionalism, tactical insight, and ability to foster team spirit in a short period will be remembered, and the challenge now lies in ensuring that the momentum he helped build is not lost. As the team prepares for Saturday’s fixture, all eyes will be on St Noa Girls FC to see how they respond to this sudden leadership vacuum and whether they can continue their impressive start to the season.
