Record FKF Women’s Premier League champions Vihiga Queens launched their title campaign in convincing style, securing a 0-3 away victory over Bungoma Queens on Sunday afternoon at the Bungoma National Polytechnic.
Vihiga’s Head Coach, Boniface Nyamu Nyamu, named a strong starting lineup that included new signings: Anita Namata, Noel Shilachilo, Airin Madalina, and Damali Matama.
It was debutant Madalina who broke the deadlock in the 30th minute, marking her return to the FKF Women’s Premier League with a goal.
Madalina, rejoined the Kenyan top flight following a rocky spell with Tanzanian giants Yanga Princess. She previously clinched the Golden Boot in the 2022/2023 Kenya Women Premier League (KWPL) season, having scored 18 goals for Bunyore Starlets.
Two minutes later, instrumental midfielder Martha Amunyollette, who had provided the first goal assist, found the net for her first of the season, sending the teams into halftime with Vihiga holding a 2-0 lead.

Martha then sealed the win with a goal inside the first ten minutes of the second half to give the Legacy Makers a 3-0 win. The win catapults Vihiga to the summit of the table with a superior goal difference.
Elsewhere, Madira Soccer Assassins marked their return to the top flight with a 2-0 victory over debutants Gideon Starlets at Mumboha Stadium in Vihiga County.
Fresh from scoring for Kenya in the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup Qualifiers against Ethiopia, lethal forward Valerie Nekesa netted a brace to secure all three points for the Soccer Assassins.
Assassins made history in 2023 when they became the first girls’ school to feature in Kenya’s Women top-flight league; they were promoted at the start of the 2023/24 season but were relegated in the same season.
They spent a year in the cold before winning the FKF Women’s National Super League Zone B and earning promotion back to the top flight.
