(Kampala; 5 January 2001) The Uganda Under-19 cricket team represents the nation of Uganda in under-19 cricket at international level.

Uganda has qualified for the Under-19 Cricket World Cup on three occasions—in 2004, 2006 and 2022. The team's best performance came in 2022, when it defeated Scotland in the 13th-place play-off. Uganda has won the ICC U19 Cricket World Cup Africa Qualifier twice, in 2009 and 2021, and placed runner-up on another four occasions.

History

A notable individual performance was Emmanuel Isaneez's 6/37 against Bangladesh in 2004, which at the time was the second-best figures in World Cup history.

As of 2021, the team was coached by former national team player Ivan Thawithemwira.
