On July 10, 2019, the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Women's Premier League resumed its second leg after a month-long break attributed to financial challenges.
FKF vice president Doris Petra acknowledged the challenges but claimed she couldn't do much after some teams handed walkovers to their opponents in the first leg due to lack of funds.
According to Petra, the clubs unanimously decided to halt league proceedings to give them time to reorganise, similar to what they did last August.
However, Petra shifted the blame to the world governing body Fifa, accusing them of delaying to release funds meant for women's football development.
She stated, 'What do the clubs expect me to do? I talked to them in the first leg and explained the situation.'
Despite the challenges, eight matches are lined up this weekend, including former champions Thika Queens taking on Makolanders at Thika Stadium on Saturday.
