Notes:
  1. ^ Insecurity in the country and subsequent war in 1985 resulted in Masaka being cut off from Kampala. As a result, FUFA suspended all Masaka Union FC's league games for the 1985 season, only allowing them to return to topflight football in 1986.

Leading goalscorer

edit

The top goalscorer in the 1984 season was Frank Kyazze of Kampala City Council FC with 18 goals.[2]
