Kenya Prisons yesterday beat defending champions Kenya Pipeline 3-1 in the final of the 2025-2026 season of the Kenya Volleyball Federation (KVF) Women’s National League match played at the Kasarani Indoor Arena.
With the victory, the wardresses are one step closer to recapturing the title that has eluded them for years. A win in today’s game two of the best-of-three series will end their trophy drought after years of being overshadowed by their peers. Prisons recovered from last season’s heartbreak that left them end the league empty-handed to seal a final spot and remain in the race for the trophy.
The wardresses made their intentions to win game one known from the onset as they maintained the lead to take the first set 25-23. The oilers were more composed as they gained full control of the game and took the second set 25-16 to level matters 1-1. The third set was evenly contested, with both sides doing everything within their power to take charge of the game. Even so, the wardresses outlasted the oil merchants to grab the third set 27-25 and take a 2-1 advantage.
