FKF Shield Cup to be played to conclusion once Government approves - Mwendwa

Football Kenya Federation (FKF) has confirmed the Shield Cup will be played to a conclusion.

The competition was halted in March owing to the Covid-19 pandemic; by the time, the tournament was in the knockout phase. Initially, the Federation had stated the chances of playing the competition were slim but with the graph of the virus going down, there is renewed hope.

"The [FKF Shield] will be played to a conclusion for us to get a deserving team to represent the country in the Caf Confederation Cup, otherwise we will not have a representative," the incumbent FKF president Nick Mwendwa told Goal on Thursday.
