[*1] Oserian Fastac (Naivasha) were renamed and relocated as AC Nakuru;
     they were suspended on January 29 after failing to show for 3 matches
     (vs Cook'N Lite, Oct 29, vs Kawangware, Jan 18, and vs Cook'N Lite,
     Jan 25); it was reported that all their matches were annulled (to
     the displeasure of Mathare United) and they have consequently been
     removed from the table; the relevant (deleted) scores are indicated
     between square brackets; 2*0 indicates awarded match.
[*2] Mombasa Heroes were renamed Cook'N Lite.

 -.Brooke Bond (Kericho)        [*5] excluded             

[-] without goals week 21

NB: results between square brackets are matches vs Meru Bombers that
    logically should be deleted from the table.

[*3] Kisima Bombers (Meru) were apparently renamed Meru Bombers;
     they withdrew after playing 8 matches, winning one, drawing 3 
     and losing 4 on Nov 22, due to financial constraints after their 
     sponsors withdrew.  However, the FA did not acknowledge their 
     withdrawal and kept scheduling matches for Meru at which they do 
     not show.  After having had two matches (against Leopards and
     Mumias) awarded against them, it appears that they managed to
     play a match against Sher Agencies early February (this is however
     unconfirmed and the result later (0-1 loss to Meru) disappeared from
     later reported league tables) and against Utalii (0-3) a few weeks
     later, possibly thanks to a 'rescue committee' headed by the Minister
     of Finance; it may be that all their matches will be annulled or the
     results of the 1st half of the season will stand; the results of each
     team against them are indicated between square brackets; 2*0 indicates
     awarded match.
[*4] Coast Stars were taken over by Kenya Ports Authority but will
     not change name.
[*5] Brooke Bond (Kericho) withdrew on Sep 12 due to lack of sponsorship;
     a match between Agro-Chemical (Muhoroni) and Administration Police
     (Nairobi) was arranged for Sep 21 to determine who would take their
     place but cancelled on Sep 18 after a politician had offered to pay
     the participation fee for Brooke Bond.  Nevertheless, Brooke Bond
     failed to fulfill any of their first six fixtures and were expelled.

     they were suspended on January 29 after failing to show for 3 matches
     (vs Cook'N Lite, Oct 29, vs Kawangware, Jan 18, and vs Cook'N Lite,
     Jan 25); it was reported that all their matches were annulled (to
     the displeasure of Mathare United) and they have consequently been
     removed from the table; the relevant (deleted) scores are indicated
     between square brackets; 2*0 indicates awarded match.

[-] without goals week 21

NB: results between square brackets are matches vs Meru Bombers that
    logically should be deleted from the table.

[*3] Kisima Bombers (Meru) were apparently renamed Meru Bombers;
     they withdrew after playing 8 matches, winning one, drawing 3 
     and losing 4 on Nov 22, due to financial constraints after their 
     sponsors withdrew.  However, the FA did not acknowledge their 
     withdrawal and kept scheduling matches for Meru at which they do 
     not show.  After having had two matches (against Leopards and
     Mumias) awarded against them, it appears that they managed to
     play a match against Sher Agencies early February (this is however
     unconfirmed and the result later (0-1 loss to Meru) disappeared from
     later reported league tables) and against Utalii (0-3) a few weeks
     later, possibly thanks to a 'rescue committee' headed by the Minister
     of Finance; it may be that all their matches will be annulled or the
     results of the 1st half of the season will stand; the results of each
     team against them are indicated between square brackets; 2*0 indicates
     awarded match.
[*4] Coast Stars were taken over by Kenya Ports Authority but will
     not change name.
[*5] Brooke Bond (Kericho) withdrew on Sep 12 due to lack of sponsorship;
     a match between Agro-Chemical (Muhoroni) and Administration Police
     (Nairobi) was arranged for Sep 21 to determine who would take their
     place but cancelled on Sep 18 after a politician had offered to pay
     the participation fee for Brooke Bond.  Nevertheless, Brooke Bond
     failed to fulfill any of their first six fixtures and were expelled.


Champions League (as called by KFF) / Champions Cup (as called by 'G-7')

NB: to determine league championship 2002/03; also known as Mini League.

Qualified: Tusker, Mathare United, Medisca Thika United, Ulinzi Stars,
           Mumias Sugar, Utalii, Coast Stars, Nzoia Sugar.

NB: 7 of the 8 clubs (exception are Coast Stars) are refusing to play
    under the KFF as they demand payment of debts by the federation
    to them; they are called 'G-7' in the press and they published their
    own fixture list on Apr 19.  KFF 'dismissed' the fixtures and
    published their own revised list one day later.  Eventually, the
    clubs agreed to play according to KFF's schedule.

NB: nine clubs, organised in the Inter-clubs Consultative Group (Tusker,
    Mathare United, Utalii, Pipeline, Nzoia Sugar, Gor Mahia, Sher
    Agencies, Mumias Sugar, KCB and Thika United) wanted to have Tusker
    and Thika re-instated, and performed a 'draw' having the winners of
    a tie between Tusker and Thika play Nzoia; the KFF wanted none of it,
    but later appeared to have given in.

[Sep 28]
Mathare U.             2-0      Pipeline

NB: following the walk-out of 12 clubs to form a new league, including
    Mumias, Gor Mahia, Nzoia, Tusker, Utalii, Mathare, KCB and Pipeline, 
    the KFF withdrew all remaining quarter-finalists (bar Ulinzi) from
    the tournament; the clubs played the quarterfinals as scheduled, but 
    the KFF replaced them by Chemelil (eliminated by Mumias), University 
    of Nairobi (eliminated by Gor Mahia), AFC Leopards (eliminated by Nzoia 
    who were then eliminated by Tusker), Kangemi United (eliminated by 
    Utalii), Kirinyaga Combined (eliminated by Mathare Youth who were then 
    eliminated by Mathare) and Securicor (eliminated by KCB who were then
    eliminated by Pipeline).
    The 'rebel' clubs have in turn invited Ulinzi to join 'their' semi-
    finals, but Ulinzi refused; instead Nation/Taifa FC (as last losers
    to Ulinzi) will be invited, but they also turned down; after which
    both Mumias and Gor Mahia were admitted.
