Kenya's impressive performance at the 10th World Woodball Championship in Perlis, Malaysia, has proved the country's growing stature in the sport.

The national team returned home with a historic haul of seven medals—one silver and six bronze—from the championship held between July 24 and 29, 2026.

The medals came after a series of closely contested matches against some of the world's strongest woodball nations, with Indonesia emerging as the overall senior champions.
