If a club is found guilty of not enforcing this rule the Federation will take appropriate action against the club. This action could be a fine, playing home matches in empty stadiums or deduction of points.

• These rules will be form the basis of far reaching regulations aimed at tackling the escalating vice of hooliganism and violence in our football. The rules will come into force immediately.

• It was noted that the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) has already instituted judicial proceedings against Gor Mahia FC and AFC Leopards SC in relation to recent cases of crowd violence and match abandonment. It was agreed that the KPL will furnish FKF with the findings and action taken by Tuesday 3rd May 2016.

Finally, I would like to thank our partners SportPesa, Super Sport and the KPL which is the company running our top tier league for their support of these regulations.
