Ulinzi Stars coach Bernard Mwalala has taken time to appreciate what is the club’s growing fanbase this season with the team’s home attendance slowly but surely growing.Over the years, the military outfit has struggled to build a fan base, but the team’s relocation to Nairobi from Nakuru appears to have been a well-thought-out move as they are increasing their fan base with football fans around Lang’ata slowly embracing the club.##NAJAVA_MECA_7014032##The emergence of the “Stand 1 branch,” a group of fans that have gone ahead to reward the best-performing players at the club, is another fresh breath of air, not only for the club but for football in the country as a whole.Their efforts have not gone unnoticed, and their coach, who took charge of the club at the start of the season, has written an open letter to the fans, thanking them for their support.”As the coach of the team, I want to take this moment to express my deepest gratitude for your unwavering support and enthusiasm. Your constant encouragement and passion for the game have been a source of motivation and inspiration to us both on and off the field”, read part of Mwalala’s letter to the fans.👏| Much congratulations to our very own Stephen Etyang for being voted the Fans’ Man of the Match award in today’s match, an initiative by the #Stand001 Branch. • We take this opportunity to thank all the members and fans from the #Stand001 Branch for the great initiative. pic.twitter.com/SZ5sSskewa— Ulinzi Stars FC (@UlinziStarsFC) February 8, 2023 “Your energy and spirit at every stage are contagious and make each match an unforgettable experience.
