Kenya Police Bullets CEO Chris Oguso has announced plans to strategically strengthen the squad with new players in preparation for the upcoming Cecafa Women Club Championship in August, to be held in Ethiopia.

The team recently secured the title of the 2023/24 FKF Women’s Premier League champions after a 3-0 victory over Bunyore Starlets at the Jomo Kenyatta Mamboleo Stadium in Kisumu. While they had already clinched the title mathematically before this match, the official crowning was a significant moment for the team.

Oguso emphasized that the crowning was not just a celebration but also a time for reflection and preparation for the challenges ahead, including the Cecafa Championship. The team’s focus will now be on bolstering their lineup to ensure they are competitive on the regional stage.

“I congratulate the girls for making history by winning the league unbeaten. Now the league is over and the focus immediately turns to the Cecafa Women Club Championship slated for August in Ethiopia. My task from today is to sit down with head coach Beldine Odemba so that she can give me the list of players she has spotted whom we can rope into our team to bolster the squad ahead of the regional tournament.

“We already have good players who can win us the regional title but we want to have depth in our side so that if we qualify to the continental showpiece, we shall be having a strong side,” he noted.

Bullets finished the league with 49 points five ahead of Ulinzi Starlets who demolished Bungoma Queens 10-0 at Ulinzi Sports Complex on the final day, while former champions Vihiga Queens, who went down 4-1 in the hands of Wadadia, finished third with 44 points same to Ulinzi with inferior goal difference.

Police Bullets head coach Odemba underlined said there is a big need to bring on board new players.

“As a coach I want to solidify all the departments from goalkeeping up to striking. We need to add a new keeper, at least two midfielders and one striker. The job has already kicked off, we have identified some of them and we are continuing to scout. I hope by doing so, we will have made strong team heading to Ethiopia for the Cecafa tournament,” said Odemba.

At the same time, Oguso who also doubles up as the Kenya Police men team CEO, hailed the team patron Raymond Omollo (PS, Interior) for pledging to buy the club a bus saying it will motivate the girls to defend their title next season.

“I want to thank our Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki and his able PS Raymond Omollo for pledging to buy both the men and women teams’ busses ahead of next season. Owning a bus as a team isn’t a small thing, a simple modern bus costs not less than Sh. 25 million and that’s a huge,” he noted.
