The home team delivered a spectacular show of strength, grit, and rising dominance as Team Siaya posted an impressive string of results on Day Two of the 12th Kenya Inter-Counties Sports and Cultural Association (KICOSCA) Games, currently underway across multiple venues in Siaya County from 22nd to 28th November 2025.
This year’s edition carries added prestige for the host county after Governor James Orengo ‘Nyalore’ was officially inaugurated as the next KICOSCA Patron, taking over from Kakamega’s Governor Fernandez Barasa in a colourful handover ceremony complete with the symbolic torch and instruments of authority.
And Siaya wasted no time proving why the mantle fits.

Today’s fixtures usher in the knockout stages, where teams either secure advancement or exit the tournament. A total of 17 disciplines involving Team Siaya—among them scrabble, handball (men & women), volleyball, table tennis, netball, and football—will be in action.

Siaya has already secured victories in Women’s Volleyball, while the Men’s Volleyball team finished third after a hard-fought duel with Tana River.
With the home crowd behind them and the honour of hosting the nation’s counties, Siaya’s athletes are showing remarkable resilience and pride. As knockout matches commence, all eyes remain on Team Siaya to see whether Governor Orengo’s new patronage will usher in a championship year.
