Chema chajiuza, kibaya chajitembeza.
A good thing sells itself, a bad one must be pushed.
Chema VC was built from a real community spark. Instead of dismissing workplace volleyball sessions, the founders supported the players, organized structure around the team, and turned a local movement into a competitive club.

- 2024: Chema VC joined Kenya's Division 2 volleyball league with a clear target to reach Division 1 in the 2025/2026 window.
- 2025: The club was crowned Division 2 champions and earned promotion to Division 1.
- Today: Chema VC continues to inspire young players and build a grassroots sports legacy from Juja.
If it is truly good, Chema chajiuza.
