The Green Commandos of Kakamega School have once again etched their name in the history books after being crowned 2026 Kenya Secondary Schools Sports Association (KSSSA) National Soccer Champions, sealing a remarkable 15th national title.
The prestigious trophy is now back home at Kakamega School following the team’s historic triumph in Thika, where the Green Commandos showcased exceptional talent, discipline, determination and tactical brilliance throughout the championship.
The victory has sparked celebrations among students, teachers, parents, alumni, coaches and thousands of supporters who have followed the school’s remarkable football journey over the years.
At the centre of the latest success is Chief Principal Dr. Elphas Aliva Luvaso, whose leadership has provided the environment and support necessary for the team to compete at the highest level.
Dr. Luvaso received the coveted national trophy at Kakamega School, marking an emotional homecoming for a side that has continued to uphold the institution’s proud footballing tradition.
The triumph further cements Kakamega School’s reputation as one of Kenya’s most successful secondary-school footballing institutions.
Fifteen national titles is not merely a statistic—it is a testament to generations of talented players, dedicated coaches, supportive administrators, passionate alumni and a school community that has consistently invested in sporting excellence.
For the Green Commandos, however, the celebrations will be short-lived.
The national champions now turn their attention to the international stage, with the team set to travel to Morogoro, Tanzania, where they will represent Kenya in the upcoming Federation of East Africa Secondary Schools Sports Association (FEASSSA) Championship.
The assignment presents another opportunity for Kakamega School to fly the Kenyan flag high and demonstrate that the Green Commandos’ success extends far beyond the national arena.
With the 15th national crown safely back in Kakamega, expectations are high that the Green Commandos will carry the same fighting spirit, discipline and teamwork to Morogoro.
For Dr. Elphas Aliva Luvaso and the entire Kakamega School fraternity, the latest triumph is a proud reminder that great sporting legacies are built through vision, leadership, hard work and an unwavering belief in young talent.
