“Please note that the new season, which was scheduled to start on September 10, 2022, has been postponed to start on Saturday, September 24, 2022.,” part of the letter read.
One of the major reasons for the changes was as a result of the transfer deadline being pushed forward. The transfer period was postponed from August 31 to September 7, 2022.
“Reference is made to our communication dated July 28, 2022, regarding the Kenya Premier League 2022/2023 season and in particular the registration of players for the upcoming season.
“The FKF Transition Committee wishes to notify all FKF PL clubs that the registration period for the 2022/23 season has been extended by a week. The window initially slated to close on August 31, 2022, shall now close on September 7, 2022,” a past letter read.
The FKF Transition also added that they will hold a pre-season conference on Friday, September 9, 2022, before the start of the league.
“The Transition committee is planning for a possible Physical Endurance Test, which ideally should be held before the beginning of the next season,” part of the letter read.
