Career

Operating as striker, Sserukuma played for Police Jinja. He enjoyed success at Kampala City Council FC[1] before a transfer to Ethiopian Premier League club Saint-George SA in July 2007. In summer 2008, he left the club Addis Ababa and moved to Bloemfontein Celtic. In July 2009, he left Bloemfontein Celtic and completed a move to Vasco Da Gama, after a falling out with Celtic manager Owen da Gama.

On 6 April 2010, Sserunkuma signed for Bidvest Wits agreeing a two-year deal with the club.[2]

However, he returned to Vasco da Gama the following season, playing in the second-tier following the club's relegation from the top flight.[3]
