There is something special about Vihiga

There is something special about Vihiga
Vihiga Queens

In case you are wondering what this is all about, here we go.

True story! 

In case you are wondering what this is all about, here we go.

We seen Vihiga United feature in the top tier FKF Premier League and should they win their relegation/promotion playoff against Kenya Police, then, the county that is nestled between Nandi, Kakamega, Siaya and Kisumu counties will have two teams in the country's top men's football league in the 2021/22 season.

This is because Vihiga Bullets have already secured a berth in the top league by virute of a second place finish in the second tier NSL.

We still have Luanda Villa and Vihiga Sportive seeking to climb to the NSL and eventually the FKF PL. 

The women are not to be outdone, Vihiga Queens have dominated the Women's Premier League in recent years, and have performed exceptionally well at the ongoing CECAFA CAF Women's Champions League qualifiers in Nairobi where they face Ethiopia's CBE in the title decider at the Nyayo National Stadium on Thursday 9 September 2021.  The likes of Jentrix Shikangwa and Tereza Engesha are household names for club, county and country.

There is certainly something special about Vihiga.
