It takes more than just playing a sport to win championships; Milton Karisa can attest to that following a fruitful season by Vipers SC.

“I would say when he (Alex Isabirye) came in, he spoke about the character, which was the order of the day,” Karisa told Pulse Sports.
“Everyone then wore the belief and character, and we stuck together as a family hence the league and cup win,” he added.
Isabirye was also crowned coach of the season after delivering a first domestic double at Vipers and dedicated the award to Mr David Serebe.
“He gave me the first chance to serve as head coach while at URA FC in 2010,” read part of Isabirye’s the statement.

“I thank my players, fellow coaches and medical team for their support during the season; I also want to thank the club president Lawrence Mulindwa for always ensuring that the club operates in a professional set-up.”
Isabriye future at Vipers
Even after leading the Venoms to their first-ever domestic league and cup double, Alex Isabirye’s future at Kitende remains uncertain, with the latest reports indicating he is on his way out of the club.
Amidst all the speculation, Isabirye has highlighted he is still the club’s head coach and hasn’t discussed his immediate future with anybody at the club, adding he has a two-year running contract.
