The Kenya National Association of Interpreters and NOCK certified the Sports Interpreters Guild of Kenya (SIGK) on April 17, 2025—setting standards for KSL, Kiswahili, English, and 5 local language interpreters at sporting events. Access is a right—not a request, said chair Grace Akinyi. The guild now has 62 certified members, deployed at AFCON U-20, Paralympic qualifiers, and school games. KBC features live interpretation at all finals. FIFA awarded Kenya a grant to train interpreters in 10 more counties.
