In a season defined by their unwavering resolve and commanding performances, Kenya Police Bullets FC have secured their place in Kenyan football history by clinching the 2023/24 FKF Women’s Premier League title. Their journey to the championship was marked by impressive victories, strategic prowess, and a spirit of resilience that set them apart as true contenders in the league.
The confirmation of Kenya Police Bullets FC as the new champions came in emphatic fashion with a resounding 6-2 victory over Zetech Sparks in their penultimate match of the season. This decisive win not only underscored their dominance but also highlighted their ability to perform under pressure when it mattered most.
At the helm of this remarkable achievement is Beldina Odimba, who not only leads Kenya Police Bullets FC but also serves as the head coach of the Harambee Starlets. Her tactical acumen and leadership have been instrumental in guiding the team to success, ensuring they maintained focus and discipline throughout the demanding season.
The transformation of Kenya Police Bullets FC from Thika Queens FC, a three-time FKF Women’s Premier League champion, to their current identity was a strategic move that paid off handsomely. Just 11 months after rebranding, they have effectively ended the dominance of defending champions Vihiga Queens, who finished as runners-up this season.
A significant factor contributing to their success has been their fortress at the Police Sacco Ground, where they maintained a perfect record, winning all their home matches. This home-ground advantage not only boosted their morale but also instilled fear in visiting teams, cementing their reputation as formidable opponents.
As champions, Kenya Police Bullets FC will be awarded Ksh. 1 million and a prestigious trophy, underscoring the significance of their achievement in Kenyan women’s football. The coronation ceremony will take place during their final match against Bunyore Starlets at Mamboleo Sports Ground in Kisumu, a fitting tribute to their stellar season.
