Kayole Starlet forward Christine Ngoizi has been named the Kenya Footballers Welfare Association (KEFWA) Player of the Month for March 2021, in the Kenya Women Premier League (KWPL) Zone 'A'.
Ngoizi, popularly known as “Kachali”, played a key role in helping her team and her fellow players were convinced to vote for her as the most outstanding player in March.
“This award is not just for me but for the entire team. All the good performances that made me win this award were because of my teammates and the technical bench led by the coach,” Ngoizi said during the awarding ceremony at Kayole Calvary Grounds.
“This is a very big achievement for me and my team. I need to keep moving and better my performances so that I can be among the finalists at the end of the season KEFWA Gala Awards,” added an elated Ngoizi, who received the award on her birthday.
Ngoizi, a natural defender who has been playing as a forward this season, garnered 24 votes to beat Lucy Adhiambo (Mathare United Women) and Samantha Okenya (Makolanders) who had 23 and 19 votes respectively.
Ngoizi becomes the fourth player to win the award this season in Zone 'A' after Ulinzi Starlets' forward Neddy Atieno, Kibera Soccer Ladies' Cynthia Atieno and Gaspo's defensive midfielder Sheryl Angachi. Ngoizi walked home with a personalised trophy and Sh10,000 shopping voucher.
