Kenya Tchoukball Federation is now an official Member of the International Tchoukball Federation, FITB. This was ratified on the last General Assembly held in Geneva on September 26th and 27th. This makes Kenya the Second African Country to Join FITB.
Kenya tchoukball Federation was launched on 26th September 2009 at Starehe Boys' Centre sports ground.
The Commissioner for sports in Kenya, Mr. Gordon Oluoch presided over the luncheon which was sponsored by Coca Cola Company.
The inaugural tournament was between Starehe Boys' Centre Tchoukball Team and The university of Nairobi tchoukball team
We are very thankful for Starehe Boys' Centre for allowing us to use their premises for the luncheone desite the Swine Flu alert which demanded that functions should be avoided if they encouraged crowding of people.
Many thanks to the executive commitee as well, and especially the my deputy, Mr. John Opot, without whom the event would have not been had. Special thanks to the teams that participated, the visitors and guest that attended and all those participated in any way. Your contribution went a long way to ensure the success of the event. Thank you all.
We are now done with the conception, the gestation and the delivery of our new born Kenya Tchoukball Federation. Our next step which is in progress is the nurturing of this baby to ensure it grows through to adulhood and maturity.
We hope to keep growing better and stronger as we comtinue making tomorrow today. Actually the future is bright!
