The Milimus Tournament was established in honor of the late Evangelist Gerishom Milimu, a respected teacher at Thika Primary School for the Blind and an inspirational figure in his community. Founded by his son, Fadhili Masitsa Milimu, in Ingolomosio Village, the tournament serves as a tribute to his father’s legacy, dedicated solely to supporting and nurturing local talent within the community. The Milimus Tournament is a non-political initiative, focused purely on uplifting young talent and fostering a spirit of unity and sportsmanship.
The Milimus Tournament continues to be a beacon of hope and inspiration, honoring a remarkable legacy while making a lasting impact on the lives of young people in the community.
Established with a vision of creating a lasting tribute, the tournament serves as a positive community outlet, especially for young people. The initiative provides an avenue for youth to channel their energy, talent, and aspirations through sports, uniting participants and fostering a sense of pride. Held during the December holiday season, the tournament also serves as a time for families and communities to gather, celebrate, and cheer on their youth, building bonds and reinforcing the spirit of togetherness.
