Abaluhya Football Club Leopards Sports Club, officially abbreviated as AFC Leopards, is a Kenyan professional football club based in Nairobi. It currently competes in the Kenyan Premier League, the top tier of the Kenyan football league system, and was founded in 1964 by football lovers from the Luhya community. With 12 top-flight league titles to their name, AFC Leopards is Kenya's third most successful club behind Tusker FC (13 titles) and Gor Mahia (18 titles), the latter with whom they regularly contest the Mashemeji Derby. The team currently plays most of its home games at the Nyayo National Stadium
AFC Leopards' standing as one of the most successful clubs in the region is underlined by the fact that it has won the Kenyan Premier League 12 times. AFC Leopards has also won the Kenya Cup 10 times, and the CECAFA Club Championship 5 times.
The club was formed in 1964 as Abaluhya United Football Club. In 1973 the club changed its name to Abaluhya Football Club when a number of small clubs amalgamated. In 1980 the club was renamed AFC Leopards, the name it holds until present.
In 2008 they played in the Nationwide League and won the title in their zone. They returned to the Kenyan Premier League for the 2009 season in which it also won the KFF Cup.
History
The 1960s
From the 1960s or even earlier; the notion and formation of various Abaluhya teams for invitational matches became the forerunner of what eventually would become Abaluhya United. On 12 March 1964, the East African Standard newspaper published a report on the birth of a new club known as Abaluhya Football Club, which resulted from the amalgamation of Marama, Samia United and Bunyore; all Nairobi based clubs that were in Division 1 of the Kenya National Football League. The amalgamation process also included lower division clubs such as Kisa, Tiriki, Bukusu Brotherhood, Busamia, Lurambi, Butsotso, Bushibungo and Eshirotsa thus building its base and establishments that would make it a success in the future.
The 1970s and 80s: Legacy building and golden era
This was a period of sustained performance from the club, which brought it more fame. This included winning the Kenya National Football League in an unbeaten fashion, in the process becoming the first Kenyan club to do so.
AFC Leopards marked the 80s by marking a period of dominance majorly in the domestic and regional scene.
The 1990s and 2000s
In the 90s, achievements became less frequent, although in general, the team continued to win some championships thus never suffering a considerable title drought.
The beginning of dismal campaigns for the following 10 years, including relegation from the top tier.
AFC Leopards has a strong fan base and is one of the most popular and successful teams in Kenya. The team has won numerous domestic league titles and cups over the years, and has also competed in international competitions.
The team's colors are black and white, and their logo features a roaring leopard. AFC Leopards play their home matches at the Moi International Sports Centre in Nairobi, which has a capacity of over 60,000 spectators.
The team has produced many talented players over the years, some of whom have gone on to play for top clubs in Europe and other parts of the world. AFC Leopards continues to be a dominant force in Kenyan football and a source of pride for their passionate supporters.
