  • MSC’s experienced player Jane Ofula echoed similar sentiments, dismissing claims that her team’s third-place finish last season was a fluke.
  • “We will be out to prove to our opponents who thought the one-legged format worked in our favor. We have picked valuable lessons from the Clubs Championship that will come in handy this season. Our goal is to win the league and return to the Club Championship next year,” she stated.

The 2025 Kenya Hockey Union (KHU) League season, set to begin on March 1, will revert to the two-legged format, a move widely welcomed by players and officials who believe it will enhance competition.

Last season’s campaign, played in a one-legged format, saw Western Jaguars (men) and Blazers (women) clinch the Premier League titles.
