Nairobi County launched the Midnight Netball League on September 12, 2025—featuring games from 10 PM to 2 AM at floodlit courts in Eastleigh, Kibera, and Industrial Area. Targeting nurses, security guards, boda boda riders, and factory workers, the league promotes health and community. 16 teams compete, with childcare and transport provided. Our shifts don’t end at 5 PM—why should our joy? said nurse and player Wanjiru Muthoni. Safaricom sponsors hydration packs, and AMREF offers free health checks. Crime dropped 28% in participating zones (per NPS data). The model is expanding to Mombasa and Kisumu in 2026.
