The University of Eldoret Netball sport has both men and women’s teams. Both teams have posted good results during open tournaments and University competitions. The teams have maintained 1st position  at conference level for many years under coach Ms. Stella Kiptoo, who also doubles up as the UoE athletics coach under the leadership of Kibet Rono, the Games Tutor.  Nationally, both teams have consistently maintained top three positions.

UoE men’s team has dominated the sport which many believe to be a ladies’ only sport and has made the sport very interesting to watch. During the 2023 Kenya Netball Federation (KNF) selection, two students from UoE, Christovin Wanjala and Diana Aoko were identified to join the national team.

This year, in September 2024 during a KNF tournament in Trans Nzoia, two male students, Christovin Wanjala and Abel Lemaiyan, were selected to join the national team and recently  traveled to Namibia for the African Netball Cup.

Remarks

Captains: ‘’We are very happy for our team mates since it motivates us more. Furthermore, this will market both students and the institution. On behalf of the team, I wish to thank the management, through the games tutor, for their support’’

Coach: ‘’Am very grateful to God for this coaching talent. I am very optimistic both teams will go far. Chris and Lemaiyan are very dedicated, determined and disciplined students and this is really motivating to other players. I trust every year UoE will post many players from various disciplines to national and globally. Thanks to management for their support and I believe this will really position our University positively.’’
