History


Hawassa lifted the trophy in the 2003–04 season beating Lideta Nyala SC, and picked up the Ethiopian cup in the following season. Currently Zelalem Shiferaw is the manager of the team. The club delivered its second Premier League title in the 2006–07 Season.

Hawassa Kenema participated in the 2005 and 2008 CAF Champions League, getting knocked out at the preliminary round each time. They made one appearance in the CAF Confederations Cup (2006), another tournament which they also exited in the preliminary round.

Ghanaian defender Lawrence Lartey joined Hawassa Kenema SC on a one-year contract in October 2017.[1]

In November 2016, at beginning of the 2016–17 season, goalkeeper Kibreab Dawit along with his two children died due to an accident at his home in Hawassa. Kibreab Dawit was the second choice goalkeeper at the time and managed 6 starts since the start of the 2014–15 season.[2]

During the 2017–18 season the team fired its head coach Wubetu Abate, his assistant Zelalem Shiferaw served as interim coach until the end of the season.[3]

On August 5, 2018, the club announced that had agreed to a two-year contract with Addise Kassa, formerly the manager of Welkite City FC, to become the next head coach of the club.[3]
