Why KCCA FC is Organizing a “KCCA FC Day”?
KCCA FC is organizing a “KCCA FC Day” for a number of reasons. First, the event is a way for the club to connect with its fans and supporters. KCCA FC has a large and passionate fan base, and the event will give fans a chance to come together and celebrate the club.
Secondly, the event will have a international friendly game where KCCA FC will host Kakamega Homeboyz (Kenya) at MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo as a precursor ahead of the 2023/24 season.
The event is a way for KCCA FC to promote the club and its brand. The event will be a great opportunity for the club to showcase itself to a wider audience.
International Friendly Game
KCCA FC has invited Kakamega Homeboyz from Kenya for this day. Kakamega are Kenyan’s sole representatives in this year’s CAF Competitions. The side will play in CAF Confederation Cup qualifiers in August and host Libya’s El Hilal in the first leg of the first preliminary round.
KCCA FC chose Kakamega because both clubs have continental ambitions and will be a perfect test ahead of the CAF games that start in August.
The international friendly game will be the culmination of the day’s activities and all this will be at the MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo.
Lots of entertainment has been lined up on the day and this will be headlined by top Ugandan artist Spice Diana who has been confirmed to perform for the fans on the KCCA FC Day.
