KENYANSTAR OF THE MONTH
W
hen did you start playing
volleyball?
I started playing volleyball at the
age of 9 at Kawaii Primary school
then extended this to Lugulu Girls
which was also a pipeline for Volleyball back then and they sponsored me on a full bursary for four
years.
When was your first national
team call-up?
I was first called to the national team in 2008 and participated
in the World cup qualification
matches in Algeria. I then joined
Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB)
in 2008 where I started playing
professional volleyball.
When did you join Kenya Prisons?
I joined Kenya Prisons in 2009
and that has been my home up to
now.
How far have you traveled with Volleyball?
I have gone far and wide with volleyball. My first outing was
with KCB in the African Championships in Cairo, last year I
was with Kenya Prisons in Japan and I was also there with the
national team for the world championships.
Which are the best moments and worst moments of your career?
My best moment was when I had my first trip with the national
team to the World Cup in Japan. I played against Italy and the
result was great. Japan was also a mixture of this as my worst
moment also came from their when I fractured my ankle that is
why I have not participated in the Africa Club Championships
that we just won.
What are your future plans as a volleyball player?
At the moment I am at Prisons. They have employed me and I
have to honor that. If a chance comes for me to go pro I will
gladly take the opportunity.
Where do you see yourself five years from now?
I will be one of the best setters in the country.
What do you do off the field. Who is Florence Bosire off the
field?
I am very talkative and I love meeting new people and friends.
I also love visiting new places. I am simple and down to earth.
Watching movies is my hobby and that is me.
