The Kenyan national netball team, the Malkia Strikers, secured their place at the Africa Netball Cup after a dominant performance in the regional qualifiers held in Kampala, Uganda. The team went through the tournament unbeaten, dispatching teams like Tanzania, Rwanda, and the hosts Uganda with relative ease. Their success was built on a strong defensive structure and a fluid, high-scoring attack. Players like shooter Mary Nambuya and goal defender Lorraine Juma were instrumental in the team’s victories. Qualifying for the continental championship was a significant achievement for the Malkia Strikers, providing them with an opportunity to compete against Africa’s best teams and potentially qualify for the Netball World Cup.
