Kenya Football Federation
Goal Project, Kasarani Stadium, Nairobi, Kenya
The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) is the officially recognized governing body for all association football activities in the Republic of Kenya. It is responsible for the administration, regulation, and development of the sport at all levels, from grassroots to professional leagues and national teams. Formed in its current structure in 2011 as the successor to Football Kenya Limited (FKL), the FKF traces its roots to the original Kenya Football Federation (KFF) founded in 1960. The federation is headquartered in Nairobi and operates under the jurisdiction of FIFA, the Confederation of African Football (CAF), and the Council for East and Central Africa Football Associations (CECAFA). The FKF is best known for organizing the top-tier Kenyan Premier League (now also known as the Mozzart Bet League), the Kenyan Women's Premier League, and the national teams, including the men's senior team, the Harambee Stars, and the women's senior team, the Harambee Starlets. The federation has faced significant governance challenges, including being placed under a FIFA suspension in 2022 due to government interference, from which it was reinstated later that year. Following elections in December 2024, a new administration led by President Hussein Mohammed took office, aiming to restore financial stability and operational integrity.
Uganda Esports and Gaming Federation
Kampala, Uganda
The Uganda Esports and Gaming Federation (UEGF) is the recognised national governing body for competitive gaming in Uganda, headquartered in Kampala. It oversees the development and regulation of esports from grassroots to elite levels, including university championships, national team selections, and coach education programmes. UEGF engages with regional East African initiatives such as the Swahili Esports Championships and the Esports Summit, and its General Secretary Bonny Omara has represented the federation at the East Africa Betting Summit, highlighting the intersection of esports and betting regulation. The federation operates without an official website, relying primarily on its Instagram account and third-party event platforms for communication and ticketing. While its founding date and full leadership structure are not publicly documented, UEGF appears to be a small, centrally managed organisation focused on building a sustainable esports ecosystem in Uganda.
