FKF Cup secures new sponsor ahead of much-awaited tournament

The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Cup organisers have secured sponsorship for the FKF Cup.



This sponsorship means that the tournament which was to kick off on February 11-12, 2023 will now start on the weekend of March 3-4, 2023.







The new sponsor will replace betting firm Betway which sponsored the tournament for two years in 2020 and 2021.



Kenya Premier League heavyweights Gor Mahia are the defending champions having edged their rivals AFC Leopards 4-1 in post-match penalties after they drew 0-0 in normal time at Nyayo National Stadium.



K’Ogalo would go on to pocket a cool Sh 2 million for the win, while Leopards received Sh 1 million, Thika based Bidco United pocketed Sh750,000 for coming in third.



In this year’s FKF draw K’Ogalo will start their title defence campaign away to Division One side Kibera Soccer FC while AFC Leopards will visit Zetech Titans also of Division One in the first round.
