Namwela Boys High set sights on Kakamega region volleyball title

Kenya Secondary Schools Sports Association (KSSSA) volleyball giants, Namwela Boys High School have set sights on clinching the Western region title after asserting their dominance in Bungoma County in the just concluded high school games.

Under the tutelage of head coach Isaac Muresha, the school extended its reign as county champions — a title they have held unbroken since 2019.

Speaking to Citizen Digital after his team’s emphatic performance, Muresha expressed confidence in Namwela’s prospects at the regional stage, noting the school’s sustained excellence and commitment to maintaining top form.

“We are proud to have retained the county title. It wasn’t easy because the competition was tough, but our boys rose to the occasion. Our eyes are now firmly on the Western region championship,” said Muresha.

Namwela sealed their county triumph with a commanding 3-0 victory over Chesamisi Boys in the finals at Bungoma High School. Muresha acknowledged that the Bungoma County championship was fiercely contested this year, with every participating school putting forth well-drilled squads.

“This year’s competition was very competitive. Every school came well-prepared, and matches were not easy. Winning this title again is a testament to the hard work and determination of our players,” he added.

The focus now shifts to the Western region secondary schools volleyball championships set to take place at St. Peter’s Mumias High School in Kakamega County in July. Namwela Boys will be hoping to replicate their county success on a larger stage and possibly earn a ticket to the national games.
