The County Government of Nairobi proudly manages the Uhuru Complex Sports Facility, a state-of-the-art venue featuring a football pitch, a basketball court, and a versatile convertible court suitable for volleyball, handball, and basketball.
Additionally, the complex includes a social hall that can host indoor games such as chess and boxing.
This modern facility plays a crucial role in nurturing the talents of youth in Kariobangi South Ward and the larger Eastlands area. It also benefits various sports academies across Nairobi County, providing a much-needed venue for training and talent development, paving the way for potential careers in the multi-billion sports industry.
