Should Kenya achieve a top two finish in the qualifiers, they will make a return to the Under 19 World Cup for the first time since 2018.
The Kenyan team will be under the tutelage of head coach Josephat Irungu and former Kenya international Peter Ongondo.
Kenya, Nigeria, and Sierra Leon qualified from the Division Two qualifier tournament held in Nigeria last year. Uganda qualified since they were previous participants in the U19 World Cup held in 2022 in West Indies.
Team Kenya has been in a training camp where they were sharpening their talons with the hope of qualifying for the World Cup. In a past interview, team captain Vishil Patel disclosed that all the players were motivated to do better and make it to the global stage.
Patel also noted that the players will definitely be prompted to do well since their performance at the event will also be factored in as they seek to get a promotion to the senior team.
