Suba Lakers

The Suba Lakers Football Club is a ministry for young girls in Mbita District. It is the only girls football [soccer] club in the entire district and 1 of 2 in the entire county.  The club uses football as a way to impact the girls' lives physically, socially, academically and spiritually.  Giving them hope for a better future in this life and eternity. 

"Anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules." 2 Timothy 2:5

The club participates in various tournaments around Kenya throughout the year.  Our primary students train year-round and our secondary students participate with the club when they come home during school breaks. Most of our secondary students attend boarding schools where they also play on their school football teams, leading their teams towards great success. 

Growing up as a young girl in the community around Mbita is extremely challenging.  Girls face many obstacles which stand in their way of continuing in their education and achieving God's best for their lives.  It's important to be involved in the girls' lives both on and off the football field.  The club also helps many of the girls to continue their education by assisting with school fees and other educational needs.
