Ulinzi Starlets head coach Joseph Mwanza Wambua is looking to guide his charges to a third consecutive Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Women’s Cup title. Should that happen, the military side will make history as the first club to retain a cup title, having won it since its inaugural season, on their debut in the top-tier league. However, Mwanza’s charges have struggled to replicate that in the Women’s Premier League (WPL), finishing in the top five in all seasons, coming as close as second. pic.twitter.com/lIo16d4YzV— FKF Women Cup (@fkfwomencup) May 4, 2024 In an interview with Mozzart Sport, the tactician admitted that it was his desire to see the squad capture the league title next season, having dominated the cup competition should they beat Kibera Soccer Ladies in next month’s final. Asked why their cup run has not been replicated in the league, the tactician singled out their poor run against the other contenders.

Those are 18 points if we pick wins against the three top teams we play against. Then follow that with good results against the other teams and one is guaranteed of the title. Vihiga Queens and now Police Bullets have displayed that,” Mwanza offered. The tactician adds that the number of draws the team has been posting have been an Achilles heel. “We have picked valuable lessons in league and in our Cup run. I am confident the results will begin to show in the league from the coming season,” he opined. ##NAJAVA_MECA_8123967##
