On October 4, 2019, the Kenya Handball Federation national league entered Round Four at the Kaloleni grounds, with four newcomers set to shake up the competition.

Among the teams making their debut are Nanyuki and Thika in the men's category, as well as Kaluluini in both men's and women's categories.

Mount Kenya University-Thika, seeking their first win of the season, welcomed Nanyuki in the first match of the men's fixture, while newcomers Thika and Kaluluini faced off in the second match.

Warriors, still without a win, took on unbeaten Boomarang in search of their first victory, while Inspired Boys, placed seventh on the standing with four points from seven matches, looked to secure their third win against Kaluluini.

On Sunday, Strathmore University men's team aimed to go joint top with champions National Cereals and Produce Board and former champions Black Mamba, who were out of action.

Strathmore coach Peter Mwathi expressed his team's determination to maintain their unbeaten run and eye the title this season.

"We have started the season on high, winning all our matches, and we want to maintain the good run. It's a good match since Boomarang are also unbeaten," Mwathi said.

The schedule for the weekend included several matches, with Nanyuki facing off against Mount Kenya University-Thika, Thika taking on Kaluluini, and Boomarang facing off against Warriors.
