Speaking about the program, Opondo said: “The federation is doing a good thing by absorbing teachers into these coaching courses. We are with the children at school, and receiving this knowledge will help us nurture these children on the right pathway that helps create a strong foundation.”
On his part, FKF CEO Barry Otieno added: “These coaching courses are essential to our vision for Kenyan football. By equipping our coaches with advanced skills and knowledge, we’re directly investing in the future of our youth and women’s football programs. Well-trained coaches are the cornerstone of player development, and this course will help us build a stronger, more competitive football landscape across all levels.
“A testament to this achievement is the current Junior Starlets, under the leadership of Mildred Cheche and Ann Aluoch, who qualified for the first World Cup in Kenyan football history. Both coaches are products and beneficiaries of our coaching programs, showing we are heading in the right direction.”
The four-month course, led by Salim Ali and Musa Otieno, will see participants will undergo intensive training, covering topics such as tactical analysis, player development, and modern coaching methodologies.
