2024 FKF Cup winners, Kenya Police FC, are set to unveil new signing in an event scheduled for Saturday, August 10, 2024, at the Police Sacco Stadium, Nairobi.

The club’s chairman of the Board of Trustees, Bishop Dr. Fred Akama, announced that the unveiling ceremony will be part of celebration to mark the inaugural Police FC Day.

“This will be a first-of-its-kind event in Kenya, where a club unveils its new players in such a grand manner,” stated Akama.

In addition to the unveiling of new players, Kenya Police FC will launch its academy and showcase the new kit for the 2024/2025 season.

“We will be signing an agreement with two secondary schools which will be acting as our development centers both for ladies and men.”

“The academy will nurture talent for under-9, under-12, under-15 and under-17 for men, and under-15 and under-17 for ladies in compliance with FIFA regulations,” he added.

Akama further stated that they will be unveiling their sponsors for the 2024/2025 season on the same day.

To engage with fans, Police FC will host an exhibition match against Shabana FC, while the club's fans' team will face off against their media team.

Akama further emphasized on the importance of building a strong fan base to support the team.

“We are working to expand our support base beyond the traditional community-based model and adopt a location-based approach, similar to clubs in other countries,” he said.
