FOOTBALL New era dawns as FKF Women National Super League teams for 2023/24 season revealed
The upcoming Women's National Super League in Kenya, split into two zones, showcases top teams from various regions, promoting talent and competition.
Korir restored Kenya’s glory in the two-lap race during last year’s edition of the race and the Kenyan duo will have the weight on their shoulders to retain the glory.
Ngeno, competing in Heat Two, will face a stern test as he will be competing against some of the most experienced runners. Canada’s Marco Arop, a serial threat, will be in the Heat campaigning for a slot in the final.
Algeria’s Djamel Sedjati will also be in action in the same Heat with the hope of going one step better after finishing second during last year’s edition of the World Championships in Eugene, Oregon, USA.
Heat Three will see Wanyonyi headline the field and hopefully earn a slot in the final. He was in action during last year’s edition, his first time competing against the seniors, and managed a fourth-place finish.
This time around, he wants to go one place better and he has all it takes to achieve that dream. He will be up against Ireland’s Mark English, a potential threat to his chances.
Spain’s Adrian Ben, Italy’s Simone Barontini, and USA’s Bryce Hoppel will also be in action with the hope of stunning the Kenyan.
