Reading Time: 2min | Tue. 17.01.23. | 15:57

Action is likely to be held at Kaloleni Handball grounds but a return to Nyayo is also viable.

Kenya Handball Federation (KHF) has released fixtures for the first ywo weekends of February when the league is set to make a comeback after a two-month break. 

The last league matches were held on 20 November before teams took a sabbatical. In December only three teams were in action at the East and Central Africa Club championship held in Zanzibar. 

As per the fixtures released on Tuesday 17 January, the women's league gets action underway on 4 February with six matches on the cards. Six more will be played on Sunday 5 February. 

League leaders and defending champions Nairobi Water Queens as well as second-placed National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB) who have played 14 and 13 matches respectively have been excluded from the first weekend's action as well. 

Third-placed Ulinzi Sharks who have played 11 matches take on school girls Rising Stars on Saturday before taking on varsity side Daystar Falcons on Sunday.


The two matches give the military side a chance to move second as they are currently two points adrift of NCPB. 

Meanwhile, Gerald Juma-coached Rangers Women make their trip to Nairobi with a full plate where they are set to play for matches. 

Currently in fourth place after 11 matches with 16 points, Rangers play Amazon and Kenyatta University Vampires on Saturday before facing off with Net Navigators and Nairobi County Council (NCC) Women on Sunday

The men's league, meanwhile, makes a return on 11 February with three matches on the cards. 

Title hopefuls Strathmore University get the men's league return underway as they take on K.U men while school boys Inspired play Spartans. Boomerang close the day's action against Desert Scorpions.
