County Titles and Participation Awards
To further motivate competition and reward excellence, winning teams in each category (U13, U15 and U17 Boys) will be officially crowned FKF Kakamega County Champions at the end of the tournament. The champions will receive trophies and recognition during the awards ceremony, marking them as the best youth teams in the county for the 2025/2026 season.
In addition, all participating teams will be presented with footballs as a token of appreciation and support for grassroots development, reinforcing FKF Kakamega County’s commitment to nurturing talent and improving training resources at the community level.
Speaking on the incentives, FKF Kakamega Chairman Jeff Mudembei noted:
“Beyond competition, we want to support our teams materially. Awarding county champions and presenting balls to participating teams is our way of encouraging continued training, growth, and sustainability of youth football across Kakamega County.”
FKF Kakamega County Youth Representative Joseph Kubati added:
“These awards give the players something tangible to fight for and motivate teams to stay active even after the tournament. It is about building a strong football culture from the grassroots.”
There is renewed optimism for football development in Kakamega County after H.E. FCPA Fernandes Barasa, OGW pledged to give audience to the FKF Kakamega branch on how to support and partner with FKF Kakamega teams after the Malava Parliamentary by-elections to be held on 27th November 2025.
Speaking to the FKF Kakamega delegation, Governor Barasa reaffirmed his commitment to collaborating on key initiatives aimed at strengthening football structures, talent pathways, and resource mobilisation across the county.
During the meeting, the governor received an FKF-branded jersey presented by FKF Kakamega officials led by Chairman Jeff Mudembei and Secretary General Rajab Wangalwa. He appreciated the gesture and assured the officials of his readiness to engage in programmes that uplift both grassroots and elite football.
FKF Kakamega leadership expressed optimism, noting that the governor’s goodwill comes at a crucial time as preparations for the 2025/26 season intensify. Player registration and renewal for the upcoming County League season is currently underway, with clubs encouraged to complete their processes early to ensure a smooth kickoff.
In addition, a coaching refresher course is scheduled for December, aimed at equipping county coaches with updated technical skills and modern methodologies to raise the competitiveness of local teams.
With such collaborative efforts on the horizon, FKF Kakamega believes a strong partnership with the County Government will unlock greater opportunities and reinforce Kakamega’s status as one of Kenya’s leading football hubs.
In a major boost to women’s football in Kakamega County, Hon. Osanga, an aspiring Member of Parliament for Matungu Constituency, has pledged to provide an ambulance for Kakamega Starlets during all their home matches.
The pledge came after Hon. Osanga attentively listened to FKF Kakamega Chairman Jeff Mudembei, who spoke passionately on behalf of the team, highlighting the immense challenges faced by community-based women’s clubs—especially the high cost of meeting mandatory matchday requirements such as ambulance services.
Ambulance hire remains one of the most expensive requirements for home fixtures, often costing at least Ksh 10,000 per match. The timely commitment by Hon. Osanga will therefore ease the team’s financial strain while enhancing player safety and medical readiness during league matches.
Hon. Osanga: “This is just the beginning” Speaking during the announcement, Hon. Osanga reaffirmed his commitment to promoting sports and empowering young women through football:
“Kakamega Starlets represent the spirit and resilience of our Matungu community. I have seen the passion these young ladies bring to the game, and I believe they deserve every support possible. Providing an ambulance is just the beginning — we will continue to stand with them and ensure women’s football thrives in Matungu and beyond.”
FKF Kakamega Chairman Commends the Gesture
FKF Kakamega Chairman Jeff Mudembei lauded the move as a shining example of leadership that connects with the people and understands grassroots needs:
“This act of generosity by Hon. Osanga has literally salvaged Kakamega Starlets, a team that was at the brink of collapse. We call upon other leaders across Kakamega County to emulate this noble move and support football clubs in their sub-counties. Sustainable sports development starts with community ownership and local leadership.”
Matungu FKF Sub-Branch Appreciates Local Support
Echoing the same sentiments, FKF Matungu Sub-branch Chairman Jafari Namatsi thanked Hon. Osanga for responding to their appeal and recognizing the value of sports in shaping young lives:
“This is a huge relief for us as a sub-branch. The ambulance challenge has been a major hurdle for our teams. With Hon. Osanga’s support, we can now focus more on performance and talent development. We are truly grateful.”
The pledge not only brings relief to the Matungu-based FKF Women’s National Super League team but also marks a new chapter in the collaboration between football and local leadership in advancing women’s sports across the county.

In a landmark move that signals a bold new era for Kenyan football, the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) has secured a 10-year sponsorship deal with leading gaming firm SportPesa worth Ksh 1.12 Billion. The partnership kicks off with an initial injection of Ksh 85 Million for the upcoming 2025/26 FKF Premier League season.
Officials from Football Kenya Federation and SportPesa celebrate the landmark Ksh 1.12 Billion sponsorship deal during the signing ceremony in Nairobi.
The agreement, signed in Nairobi, is seen as a major boost to the sport’s revival, marking the return of substantial private sector support after a prolonged period of financial uncertainty in local football.
“A transformative chapter begins for Kenyan football,” said FKF President Hussein Mohammed. “We extend our gratitude to SportPesa for their belief in our vision. This partnership is a crucial advancement in attracting more collaborations, and we are resolutely committed to upholding the confidence you’ve placed in our hands.”
FKF President Hussein Mohammed addresses the audience during the announcement of a landmark sponsorship deal with SportPesa.
The FKF leadership acknowledged the challenges that have plagued the sport but expressed optimism that this renewed corporate faith would usher in stability and growth for the FKF Premier League (FKFPL) and beyond.
Among the dignitaries present at the signing was FKF Kakamega Chairman Jeff Mudembei, a member of the FKF National Leagues and Competitions Committee (LCC). He played an active role in lobbying for league clubs to benefit from sustainable funding and was instrumental in shaping the framework of the sponsorship.
“This is a breakthrough,” said Mr. Mudembei. “But if we are to attract and retain such partnerships, we must elevate the packaging of our league. Branding, professionalism, and visibility must improve. The current FKF leadership is doing the groundwork to rebuild the federation’s image — they deserve space and time to deliver.”
He also emphasized that while SportPesa’s commitment is a game-changer, the door remains open for more corporate sponsors to support Kenyan football at different levels.
The SportPesa-FKF deal is expected to support not only prize money for league winners but also go toward enhancing matchday operations, marketing, and administrative support for clubs.
This long-term investment could be the turning point Kenyan football has long awaited — a move that promises to reignite local talent development, competitive standards, and international recognition.

Unfortunate End to the Event
Despite the promising start, the mini-league was abruptly cut short after a section of rowdy men stormed the grounds, claiming they had a right to use the pitch for the remainder of the day. The incident disrupted the event and left organizers and fans disappointed.
