No Name FC wins #KOT5Aside tournament

No Name FC are the winners of the inaugural #KOT5Aside football tournament.

The team Saturday beat Wakapaji FC 1-0 at the Ligi Ndogo grounds in Nairobi to lift the trophy and win the prize money of Ksh 100,000.

This year’s tournament that brings together Kenyans on Twitter for a game of football was sponsored by one of Kenya’s leading betting firm Odibets.

The event brought together 24 teams from Twitter, with No Name FC emerging winners.

Through their Odimtaani initiative, Odibets has been sponsoring talent at the grassroots level.

Odibets under their Odimtaani kitting programme has kitted more than 10,000 teams with football jerseys in the country in a bid to nurture untapped talent in the field of soccer.

Last year, the Kenya Amputee football team received a financial boost of Ksh 1.5 million from the betting firm after their dreams of participating in the 2022 Amputee Football World Cup qualifiers were almost shattered due to financial constraints.

Recently, a street juggler who went viral in Kenya for his impeccable skills was appointed a brand ambassador for the besting firm.
