“This decision has been made following recommendations and advice from the team’s technical bench, led by Head Coach Benni McCarthy, after a thorough assessment of the prevailing conditions, which were deemed unsuitable for the team’s participation and overall preparation,” the statement read.
FKF moreover noted that the team will return to Kenya to prepare for the long-awaited African Nations Championship (CHAN) 2024 competition.
The team had arrived in Tanzania on Saturday, July 19, for the competition.
