The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Women Premier League kick-off dates have been postponed from Saturday, December 12, 2020, to Sunday, December 13, 2020.

Vihiga Queens will have their players and officials tested at 10 am at the Kidundu Stadium as Zetech Sparks, Makolanders and SEP ladies are scheduled to get tested from 9 am at the Zetech University main campus, Shepherds Ground Buruburu and Ruga Centre respectively.

As the clock strikes noon, Kibera Soccer Ladies, Kayole Starlet, Kisumu All Starlets, and Mathare United Women are expected to set in motion their COVID 19 tests at the Kibera Girls Soccer Academy, Kayole Calvary CDF office, Moi Stadium, and MYSA Ground Komarock sequentially.
