Following FKF’s emphasis on the growth of women football, Kenya was selected to pilot FIFA’s new women’s football development programmes whereby FIFA is aiming to reach 60 million female players by 2026.
This pilot project will focus on assessing Kenya’s current competition and development landscape and supporting the development of new and improved sustainable leagues using the existing club and school structures for different age categories.
