Narok County Secondary School Sports Association (NCSSSA) Secretary Jacob Basurei has urged school principals and coaches to meet the Ministry of Education deadline for registering students on the Kenya Secondary Schools Sports Association (KSSSA) portal by February 22 to avoid eligibility challenges during the upcoming county competitions.
Basurei warned that failure to register students within the stipulated timeline could lead to players being barred from participating in the county games.
He emphasized that the online registration process is crucial in verifying the eligibility of students and ensuring fair competition among schools.
Timely submission, he said, will give schools adequate time to address any discrepancies before the tournament begins.
The county games are scheduled to take place from March 4-6 at Narok Boys High School grounds, and are expected to attract teams from various secondary schools across Narok County, all competing for a chance to advance to the Rift regional level.
