Coronation beckons for Police Bullets after stellar season
Kenya Police Bullets
Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Chris Oguso has said that they will use their
end of the season match against Bunyore Starlets as a friendly clash ahead of
the CAF Champions League/Cecafa qualifiers tournament slated for August in Ethiopia
The law enforcers are
poised for coronation on Wednesday June 26, 2024 as the 2023/24 season
culminates.
The match against
Bunyore which was earlier scheduled to be played at Mumboha Stadium in Vihiga
has been moved to Mamboleo Stadium in Kisumu.
"I congratulate the
ladies for winning the title without conceding a single match going to our
final match to us will be as a training being that we already won the league
earlier enough.
‘Our first Cecafa match
is slated for August 17 and it's not that far, we need to hit the preparation
camp immediately after the league ends.
“I can say the title win
has been made possible due to proper coordination of the technical bench head
by Coach Beldine Odemba.
“Also the Kenya Police
Services has given the girls maximum support and we are looking forward to
continue with the same spirit ahead of Cecafa and the next season"
This is their first
title since they adopted a new name from Thika Queens, with their stellar
campaign seeing amass an impressive 46 points from 21 matches so far.
The second place has
been secured by Vihiga Queens while Ulinzi Starlets settled for third place.
Gaspo Women and Trans
Nzoia Falcons have already been relegated, while Soccer Assassins and Zetech
Sparks are vying to avoid the axe.
Currently, Zetech Sparks
are three points ahead of Soccer Assassins and have an inferior goal
difference.
With no more games to
play, they hope Soccer Assassins do not win their match at Wolves Den, Kajiado.
It will take a miraculous 7-0 win for Soccer
Assassins against fourth-placed Kibera Soccer Ladies FC for them to secure
their place in the FKFWPL 2024/25 season.
The race for the golden
boot has heated up over the season, with Vihiga Queens' Tumaini Waliaula
leading with 15 goals, Kenya Police Bullets' Purity Alukwe second with 14
goals, Rebecca Okwaro with 13 goals, and Nancy Atako with 12 goals.
As the 2023/24 season of
FKF WPL draws to a close, all eyes are on Kenya Police Bullets for their
imminent coronation.
While they celebrate their championship, the battle at the other end of the table will also be intense.
