MKJ SUPA CUP
Governor Mutula Kilonzo Junior Super Cup — Makueni County
Governor Mutula Kilonzo Junior Super Cup — 4th Edition
The Governor Mutula Kilonzo Junior Super Cup (MKJ SUPA CUP) is a grassroots-to-county youth sports championship played across all wards and sub-counties of Makueni County. The MKJ SUPA CUP Games are designed to unearth and develop raw sporting talent among Kenyan youth who are out of school and have missed mainstream scouting opportunities.
Many talented young Kenyans aged 18 to 23 lack the platform to showcase their abilities — they are not in universities or colleges, have never played in any higher league, and have limited exposure to professional sports institutions. MKJ SUPA CUP bridges this gap by providing a competitive, structured pathway from the ward level all the way to the county finals.
The competition starts at Ligi Mashinani (grassroots league) in every ward, from which a Ward All-Stars team is selected to compete at the sub-county level. Each sub-county then forms a Sub-County All-Stars team that competes in the MKJ SUPA CUP County Finals.
The 4th Edition of the MKJ SUPA CUP Games will be held in 2026 in Makueni County, organised by the MKJ SUPA CUP Executive Committee in collaboration with the Makueni County Government.
MKJ SUPA CUP is Makueni County's premier grassroots-to-county sports championship, bringing together talented young athletes aged 18 to 23 from all wards and sub-counties.
Every year, MKJ SUPA CUP hosts a multi-stage championship — starting from Ligi Mashinani in every ward, through sub-county playoffs, to the grand county finals.
Exclusively for young Kenyans aged 18 to 23 — identifying, developing, and celebrating the next generation of sporting talent.
Ward All-Stars compete at sub-county level, then Sub-County All-Stars battle it out in the MKJ SUPA CUP County Finals.
Real-time tracking of fixtures, results, standings, and player statistics across all competitions.
To identify, nurture, develop and promote sporting talents among the youth of Kenya; to promote peace and national cohesion among communities from different counties; and to link talented youth to professional sporting clubs and other institutions.
A Kenya where every young athlete, regardless of their county of origin, has the opportunity to showcase their raw sporting talent and be scouted into professional clubs — promoting peace, national cohesion, and youth empowerment through sport.
