KCB women’s Volleyball club bolsters squad ahead of new season

Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) women's volleyball team has expanded its roster ahead of the 2026/2027 Kenya Volleyball Federation (KVF) National League season. The club added three new players from its academy at Kesogon Senior School. These additions include Juliet Naliaka Wakwabubi and Ruth Atabo, both serving as middle blockers, and Christene Gati, who will play as an opposite hitter.

The team's new coach, Japheth Munala, emphasized the importance of promoting players from their academy, stating that these players have shown potential and are expected to make a valuable contribution to the team with proper guidance and exposure. KCB also signed 23-year-old Mercy Cherono, who transferred from Kenya Prisons. Cherono, who was named the league's Best Outside Hitter for the 2025/2026 season, is expected to bring experience and reliability to the team, helping them improve upon their third-place finish in last season's National League playoffs.
