Vihiga Queens Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Michael Senelwa is confident that the legacy makers will retain their Kenyan Women Premier League (KWPL) title, as the new season kick offs on Sunday, October 7, 2023.

The four-time champions went down 2-0 against Ulinzi Starlets in Football Kenya Federation Women's Super-Cup on Sunday and they are aiming to overturn the loss when both sides lock horns in the KWPL new season opener at Moi Stadium Kisumu.

Senelwa has urged his charges to be more focused ahead of the match, adding that the management has given them the support they need.

“We have had great preparations for the new season and I believe the players are ready for it. We went down against Ulinzi on Sunday but that is football. You win, lose or pull a draw.

“We have signed few new players to boost our squad and by the course of the week, we will unveil them officially.”

The new season kicks off officially on Saturday with a match pitting debutants Bungoma Queens and Kibera Soccer Ladies at the Sudi Stadium in Bungoma.

On Sunday, Gaspo Women who were first runners up last season will kick off the season against Bunyore Starlets at Stima Members Club, while Trans Nzoia Falcons will take on Zetech Sparks at Ndura Sports Complex.

Nakuru City Queens will wrap up the fixtures against Wadadia FC at  ASK Grounds in Nakuru.
