Kenya Football Federation: News, Updates & Analysis

When talking about Kenya Football Federation, the governing body that oversees football activities across Kenya, from youth leagues to the senior national team. Also known as KFF, it plays a central role in the sport’s development.

The KFF is a member of Confederation of African Football (CAF), the continental organization that runs African competitions and sets regional standards, and through CAF it aligns with FIFA, the global governing body that defines the rules and funding structures for football worldwide. Because of these links, Kenya Football Federation must follow international regulations while tailoring programs for local clubs.

One of the KFF’s biggest projects is the Kenyan Premier League, the top‑flight competition that showcases the country’s best talent. The league feeds players into the national side, popularly called the Harambee Stars, Kenya’s senior men’s team that competes in AFCON and World Cup qualifiers. This pipeline creates a clear semantic chain: KFF oversees the Premier League, the Premier League supplies the Harambee Stars, and CAF and FIFA provide the competitive framework.

Readers will find coverage of recent KFF board decisions, updates on league fixtures, insights into youth development programs, and analysis of how international policies affect local football. Whether you’re following the latest transfer rumors or tracking the national team’s progress, the collection below offers a snapshot of the ecosystem that the Kenya Football Federation manages.

Below you’ll discover a curated list of articles that dive into each of these areas, giving you a practical look at what’s happening on and off the pitch in Kenyan football.
