WPL: Trans Nzoia Falcons players brutally booted out of camp, again!

Festus Chuma 12:00 - 13.06.2023

Falcons finished eighth in 2022/2023 FKF Women's Premier League season.

Trans Nzoia Falcons FC, a women's football team based in Trans Nzoia County, have been forcibly evicted from their camp for the third time this year.

The players, who had been preparing tirelessly for upcoming tournaments, were left shocked and disheartened as County Enforcement Officers unceremoniously threw them out.

According to Moses Ngeiywa, the chairperson of Trans Nzoia Falcons, the team's efforts to engage with the Trans Nzoia County Government Sports Department were met with resistance.

 "We tried to talk to the Trans Nzoia County Government Sports Department, but the officials there threw us out of offices," Ngeiywa told Pulse Sports.

The situation escalated when County Enforcement Officers arrived at the Falcons' camp on Tuesday morning and forced all the players to leave immediately.

Beddings belonging to the team were callously thrown outside, leaving the players without a place to rest. 

Despite the team's repeated attempts to contact Dr. Roselyne Nasiebanda, the Chief Officer for Sports in Trans Nzoia County, their efforts have remained unanswered. 

Trans Nzoia Falcons, known for their determination and resilience, have faced numerous challenges throughout their journey. 

They have overcome financial constraints, limited resources, and societal prejudices to pursue their passion for football. 

However, the recent events have left the team and its supporters questioning the commitment of the local authorities towards women's sports.

Trans Nzoia Falcons finished eighth in the 2022/2023  Football Kenya Federation Women's Premier League sessions, and they have been in camp preparing for the upcoming season.
