Hockey fans are set for a bumper weekend with 13 Kenya Hockey Union league matches scheduled on Friday, Saturday and Sunday at the City Park Stadium.

Chase Amira and Kenyatta University will kick off the weekend's matches from 10 a.m. paving way for a men's Premier Leagu match between fourth-placed Wazalendo against a tricky Parklands Sports Club side.

There is only one men's Premier League match on Sunday when Chase Sailors (9) play KCA-U (14).

In the men's National League, Pool A leaders Wazalendo Masters who have lost only two matches play Mvita XI in a top-of-the-table clash on Saturday from 6 p.m. before facing Mombasa West the next day from 4 p.m.

There are four matches on Saturday where Thika Rovers have an uphill task against Mvita XI from 12 p.m. in Pool A. Impala have a date with Mombasa Sports Club from 6 p.m.

On Sunday, the hockey menu will serve four matches from 9 a.m. when Daystar University host Mombasa Sports Club paving way for another National league match between Mombasa West and Impala before JKUAT tackle Bay Club from 12 p.m.
