FOOTBALL Struggling Kayole Starlet announce new coach hours after Sakwa sacking
Starlet have parted company with coach Joshua Sakwa after going out of the FKF Women's Cup last-32 stage.
Jukwaa Inc CEO Theo Mwangi has also welcomed the partnership, which he believes will improve Starlets.
"We are thrilled to kick off our partnership with Kayole Starlets today to allow the club to maximise its potential.
By leveraging the technology, we will allow the club to connect more with the community, fans, and sponsors. We look forward to helping all the players commercialise their skill and play at the most prominent football stages."
Kayole Starlets will don their new jersey on Sunday when they welcome Zetech Sparks at Camp Toyoyo Grounds.
The team will play in the Division One league next season because they are mathematically out of the Kenya Women's Premier League.
Kayole Starlets have minus three points and are seated at the bottom of the 12-team table.
Trans Nzoia Falcons, Zetech Sparks, and Kengemi Ladies are also candidates for relegation unless performances improve.
