Nairobi City Stars is an association football club based in Nairobi, Kenya. They currently compete in the Kenyan Premier League.

The club was founded in 2003 as World Hope Football Club, when it took over Kawangware FC, who had been relegated from the Premier League. After one season in the Nationwide League, World Hope was promoted to the Kenyan Premier League. The club was owned by World Hope International, a charitable organisation.

In October 2008, the club was bought by Ambassadors in Sport (AIS Kenya), who renamed the club to Nairobi City Stars FC after the 2008 season.[1] The name is after Cleveland City Stars. Musa Otieno, Kenyan international footballer who has also played for Cleveland City Stars is one of the leading figures behind the new club. Nairobi City Stars retained the home ground Hope Centre, located in Kawangware suburb of Nairobi.[2] Nairobi City Stars was initially coached by German manager Oliver Page, who is a former Bundesliga player.[3] He resigned from the post half-season in June 2009 despite good results, citing personal issues [4]

The club's mission statement states they will use the club's profile to raise awareness of and combat poverty, HIV/AIDS, ethnic strife and corruption.

The club have an academy known as the Vapour FC.
