WHAT IS THE FORMAT OF THE KENYAN SUPER LEAGUE?
The FKF’s second-tier league features 20 participating clubs. During the course of a season, each club plays the others in a double round-robin tournament: once at their home stadium and once at their opponent’s stadium, for a total of 38 matches. Teams get 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, and zero points for a loss. If the total points are tied, then the goal difference and goals scored are used to determine the rank among the teams. If still equal, the ranking is defined by their head-to-head records. In case of a tie for the championship, for qualification, or for relegation, a play-off game at a neutral place takes place to decide the last rank.
The National Super League winners will be crowned the League Champions. They, together with the runners-up in the league, shall earn automatic promotion to the FKF Premier League.
The three bottom-placed teams at the end of the season will be relegated to the third-tier FKF Division One League. On the other hand, the third-best ranked team in the third-tier league will participate in a promotion/relegation play-off match with the third-last ranked team (the 16th team) in the FKF Premier League for the final slot in the next FKF Premier League season.
