Will the unbeaten runs for Vihiga Queens and Police Bullets continue or will the year start with upsets?As the Kenya Women Premier League (WPL) 2023/24 action resumes this weekend, these are some of the questions many are asking as leaders Vihiga take on Zetech Sparks while Police play Bunyore Starlets.🚨 Fixture Update 🚨Change in Time for the Vihiga Queens vs Wadadia match to 11 am#FKFWPL https://t.co/vfkVvwTCa0— FKF Women Premier League (@FKF_WPL) January 5, 2024 The two sides remain unbeaten after nine rounds of action with the holders registering three draws to headline the standings on 21 points while Bullets have won four and drawn in as many matches to remain third on 16 points with a match in hand.Ulinzi Starlets, who will not be in action this weekend as their clash against Bungoma Queens was rescheduled following the demise of the latter’s forward Centrine Waswa, occupy the second position on 18 points having lost once in nine matches.Vihiga Queens go to battle in 2024 without the services of two key players Janet Bundi and Bertha Omita who have since left, the former joining Yanga Princess in Tanzania while the latter is yet to reveal her next home.##NAJAVA_MECA_7781620##“Their absence will be felt. They were part of our attacking three and they exit, leaving Tumaini Waliaula as our only option up ahead so we will have to revamp the department when the transfer window opens,” Boniface Nyamunyamu, Vihiga Queens head coach offered adding that they will be going for both experience and youth.As they face Wadadia, Nyamunyamu’s charges who have since relocated to Kisumu’s Moi Stadium as their home ground as opposed to Mumias, will look to extend their unbeaten run to 10 matches.Preparations in top gear as handball men’s team ready for African tourney“When we met Wadadia away last season, we picked a slim 1-0 win but played a better return match at home for a 3-0 win.
