PSC Sports Day unites teams, boosts wellness goals

The Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) celebrated a significant milestone on 18  July 2025, with a vibrant and well-attended Sports Day held at the KCB Leadership Centre in Karen, Nairobi.

Spearheaded by the PSC Wellness Committee, the event brought staff together for a day filled with energy, healthy competition, and camaraderie. With the theme “Igniting Team Spirit, Fueling Fitness, and Powering Productivity,” the day aimed to encourage physical activity, strengthen interdepartmental relationships, and uplift workplace morale.

The program featured a variety of sports and recreational events, including football, volleyball, basketball, swimming, table tennis, and the much-loved tug of war. Friendly matches between teams from different departments were marked by laughter, cheers, and impressive displays of athleticism and teamwork.

Clerk of the Senate and Secretary to the PSC, Jeremiah Nyegenye, praised the event’s organising team, led by Osborn Obayo, for their dedication. He emphasised the importance of wellness and recreational activities in improving staff productivity and creating a cohesive workplace environment.

“Events like this are crucial in promoting both physical health and institutional unity. They help foster a culture of teamwork, resilience, and mutual respect,” Nyegenye said.

Several dignitaries also participated in the day’s activities, including Senator Joyce Korir, Hon. Mishi Mboko, Senator Wahome Wamatinga, Deputy Clerk Eunice Gachangi, and Senate Deputy Clerk Mohamed Ali.

The leaders not only delivered inspiring remarks but also joined in the sporting fun, further boosting morale and engagement among staff.

The day concluded with an awards dinner where standout teams and individuals were recognised for their performance, discipline, and sportsmanship. Special commendations were also given to those who exemplified teamwork and fair play.

The PSC Sports Day reaffirmed the Commission’s commitment to staff wellbeing and institutional cohesion, illustrating that a fit, engaged workforce is key to sustaining high performance in public service.
