Musingu High School are determined to reclaim their national football crown after narrowly missing out last year, head coach Branden Mwinamo has revealed.
Speaking ahead of the upcoming school games, Mwinamo expressed strong confidence in his team’s preparation, insisting that the players have remained focused and active even during the holidays.
No Breaks, Just Preparation
According to the coach, the Scorpions have maintained a rigorous training schedule, combining structured sessions with friendly matches to keep the squad sharp.
“We are putting in the hard work required for us to reclaim the title. The players did not break for the holidays—we have been training and playing friendlies, and I believe we will be ready for the competition,” said Mwinamo.
This level of commitment signals a clear intent from Musingu to return stronger and more competitive on the national stage.
Lessons from Last Year’s Final
Musingu finished as runners-up in last year’s tournament after falling to St. Joseph’s Kitale in a tightly contested final.
The defeat remains a motivating factor for the squad, with the team eager to go one step further this time around.
Squad Changes but Confidence Remains
Despite losing four key players who completed their high school education, Mwinamo believes the team’s system ensures continuity and competitiveness.
“Four key players completed their studies here, but we have proper systems in place. I believe those who have replaced them are up to the task,” he added.
The coach’s confidence highlights the strength of Musingu’s development structure, which continues to produce talented replacements year after year.
Strong Form in County League
Nicknamed the Scorpions, Musingu are currently sitting at the top of their county league standings—a position that reflects their consistency and discipline.
Mwinamo believes this momentum is crucial as they build towards national competition.
“We are top of the table in the county league because of the hard work we have put in. At the same time, we are gaining valuable experience and exposure,” he noted.
Eyes on the Prize
With solid preparation, a refreshed squad, and strong league form, Musingu High School appear well-positioned to challenge for top honours once again.
Their journey back to the national final will not be easy, but the determination within the squad suggests they are ready to fight for redemption.
Conclusion
Musingu High School’s quest to reclaim their national football title is already underway, driven by discipline, preparation, and lessons learned from last year’s disappointment.
If their current form is anything to go by, the Scorpions could be one of the teams to watch in the upcoming school games.
