Genetrix coach Geoffrey Biya said he was excited that his club had preserved its top status in both the men\u2019s and ladies\u2019 leagues.<\/p>\n
The League\u2019s media officer, Wanthaza Mughogho, said the doubling of sponsorship from K1 million to K2 million this year led to stiff competition.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery team seemed determined to win the league this season. No wonder, Genetrix struggled especially in the early matches of the season. We hope that next year we will see more competition,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Mughogho added that the outstanding players and teams would be rewarded during a special prize presentation ceremony to be held soon.<\/p>\n
Some of the outstanding players from the league would be included in the Under-21 national team that would be established soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
