East African Hedex Super Cup


Competition for clubs from Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, who play local cup competitions to determine national representatives; these then meet in a final tournament.

The original sponsorship by Smithkline Beecham expired after the 1996 edition in Mwanza; in 1999/00 a one-off 'Millennium Super Cup' was organised and in 2001/02 a new 'Hedex Cup' was inaugurated.
