The reigning women’s champions, Nairobi Water Queens, secured a dominant victory over Rangers with a final score of 33-15 in a highly anticipated Kenya Handball Federation league match held at Nyayo Stadium. Despite Rangers’ reputation as the team that previously ended Water Queens’ undefeated streak of 11 years, they struggled to keep up, trailing 15-10 at halftime and failing to mount a comeback.

Gladys Chilo, the captain of Water Queens, expressed satisfaction with their opponents’ efforts in the first half, indicating that such challenges motivate their team to perform at their best.

“With our level of fitness, we can maintain the pace all through the game (60 minutes) and that works for us,” she noted.

She went on: “In the first leg, Rangers took advantage of our challenges and that worked for them.”

The inspirational Chilo noted that four of their players were not present in their previous loss against the same team.
“Today, they all went to work. Remember, it’s not how you fall that matters but how you rise after the fall. So we are ready to defend the title.”
