LAST NIGHT CAPTAIN JOSE WAS ATTACKED BY 3 ARMED ROBBERS WHO HAD METAL BARS AND STICKS.
IF ANYONE FINDS ANY INFORMATION PLEASE LET US KNOW.
This attack took place at his gate, when he arrived home in the early hrs at 4am, after his taxi work.
They smashed his windscreen, and drivers door window, then struck his right shoulder with a metal bar, before he even had time to get out of the car.
He managed to drive off, and had to attend hospital for an x-ray, but thankfully he has no broken bones, but he has a severely swollen shoulder.
So we ask all our Kenyan friends and fans, to ask as many questions as possible, to see if we can find these robbers.
You can see from the pictures, all the glass inside his car, from the broken drivers door window, plus a large crack in his windscreen. ... See MoreSee Less
AS PROMISED EARLIER IN THE WEEK, WE ARE REMEMBERING SPECIAL OCCASIONS, DURING OUR 8YR HISTORY, AND WHEN WE REMEMBER SPECIAL CUP FINALS, WE JUST HAD TO LOOK BACK ON THE FIRST EVER BRADLEY LOWERY (Kenya) CUP, WHEN WE PLAYED KIHOTO MAGPIES IN THE FINAL.
DATE: May 19th 2019
WHAT A DAY IT WAS!!!!!!!!
SUNDERLAND AFC KEROCHE RIPPPED THE MAGS APART, TO LIFT THE
BRADLEY LOWERY CUP.
Final score
SUNDERLAND AFC KEROCHE 4:0 KIHOTO MAGPIES
This had to rank as been the best day ever in our 8yr history, as we made it 7 (Yes seven) in a row against the MAGS to lift the BRADLEY LOWERY CUP
We got off to a great start when PHILO scored a header from a corner on only 2 mins, then PHILO capitalised on a mistake by their defence on 11 mins to make it 2-0. which was the half time score.
Not to be outdone CAPT JOSE scored a header from a free kick just 2 mins into the 2nd half, and also added his second goal on 68 mins to give us a convincing 4-0 victory.
PHILO was awarded the MAN OF THE MATCH, and the scenes at the end were amazing, as our English guests LISA AND TOMMY DURBRIDGE FROM DURHAM UK presented the medals and trophy.
We dedicated our victory to the memory of BRADLEY LOWERY, and to all his family and friends.

UNTIL THE BEGINNING OF THE UPCOMING SEASON WE SHALL BE REFLECTING, ON SOME OF OUR MOST MEMORABLE MOMENTS OVER THE LAST 8yrs SINCE OUR CLUB WERE BORN.
To start with, we could have picked from 3 promotions, 16 cup final victories, the fact of some 31 players progressing from the academy to the 1st team, Etc.
BUT!!!!
We feel our biggest achievement in 8yrs, was supplying KARAI PRIMARY SCHOOL (Where our pitch is based) with fresh clean water, for the 900+ pupils for the first ever time, in 2016.
For 2 days our team hand dug trenches for 3/4 of a mile through Karai village, from a fresh water well at a local orphanage. Then we laid all the flexible water pipes, installed the water tank, and concreted the water taps into the school grounds.
Previous to this, the school used to collect their water from the school roofs, into large concrete sumps, but this water became stale and discoloured, and was full of germs, and flies etc. (See pics 1, 2 and 3) which was very unhealthy for all our local children.
We feel the pictures will tell the whole story. ... See MoreSee Less
