The winner will be known during the 2018 Soya Gala set for January 11 at Fort Jesus, Mombasa. Three-time nominee Jane Ndenga from Wheelchair tennis, Special Olympics Team Kenya goalkeeper Michelle Kaindi and wheelchair racer Caroline Wanjira will battle in the women's category. Ondwari was the second highest top scorer at the 2018 World Deaf Handball Championships with 36 goals, four short of the highest scorer Murat Chomaev of Russia. That saw her qualify for the World Team Cup held in June-July in the Netherlands. Then Ndenga would be elected as one of the 11 regional representatives at the ITF World Wheelchair Players' Council in July.
