The Safaricom Chapa Dimba All-Stars team is set to depart for Huesca, Spain, for a week-long training camp. The 32 young players, selected from regional finals across Kenya, will benefit from top-tier training and international exposure.
The Safaricom Chapa Dimba All-Stars team is gearing up for a week-long international training camp in Huesca, Spain. The team, comprising 32 players — 16 boys and 16 girls — was scouted from across Kenya during regional finals held in Western, Nyanza, Rift Valley, Eastern, Coast, Central, North-Eastern, and Nairobi.
Currently in camp at Ligi Ndogo Grounds, the squad will depart Nairobi on Sunday evening, 8th December. In Spain, the players will participate in intensive training sessions, friendly matches, and masterclasses with former professional footballers. They will also train at the Base Aragonesa de Fútbol, the modern sports facility of S.D. Huesca, as part of their exposure to international football standards.
