An epic showdown is in the offing on Sunday as defending champions KCB Bank battle it out with newly crowned league queens Kenya Pipeline in the finals of the second edition of the Kenya Volleyball Federation (KVF) Kenya Cup at Kasarani Indoor Arena.

With stakes higher than ever before, the bankers who failed to recapture the league trophy they lost to Oilers in 2025 will have everything to fight for as they seek to firm their grip on their gong. However, they face an uphill task against Pipeline, who have been impressive throughout the season and will be looking to complete a double.

KCB will hope to carry their fighting spirit and momentum from the semi-finals duel, which saw them recover from second and fourth set jitters to beat the wardresses in a heart-stopping five-set thriller. Pauline Chemtai’s outstanding performance won her player of the match award in addition to anchoring the bankers to victory.
