KCB Women’s Volleyball Team humbled Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) 3-0 in a riveting encounter during the third leg of the Kenya Volleyball Federation League played at the Nyayo Stadium.
From the onset, the bankers set a tempo that KDF struggled to keep up. The first set saw KCB clinch a 25-19 victory. Maintaining their momentum, the Munala-led charges overwhelmingly dominated their opponents in the second set securing a 25-6 win.
Commenting on the team’s performance after the game, KCB Captain Edith Wisa said: “We want to continue winning games to maintain the impressive start we had to the new season. The coaches and the technical staff have been working so hard to ensure that we are fit enough and ready to play. The best way to reward them is to keep winning matches and that is exactly what we are doing. I am happy with this win.”

In the third set, the bankers sealed their victory after playing 25-12 against their nemesis, once again proving the tactical prowess and brilliance of head coach Japheth Munala.
Setter Fridah Boke, who recently joined the team from Kwathanze Secondary School, was the standout player of the match. Her tactical setting was instrumental in KCB’s victory, allowing her teammates to execute precise and powerful attacks. Her impressive skills and strategic play set the stage and turned the rhythm of the match in KCB’s favour.
Yesterday, at the same venue, KCB demolished Nairobi Prison 3-0, delivering a commanding performance to secure a straight-sets victory (25-16, 25-17, 25-14) over their opponents.
KCB will resume action on February 5, during the inaugural Kenya Cup Volleyball tournament expected to serve off in Nairobi.
