It is their maiden Prinsloo 7s victory and second consecutive cup victory in the 2023 victory which makes them maintain the lead on the standings.

KABRAS RUN IN FINALS

Under Felix Ayange’s coaching, the Sugarmen were in their third consecutive final appearance in the 7s competition, aiming to continue their impressive streak. Out of the last six finals, they had only suffered one loss during the Dala 7s, where they were defeated by KCB.

Contrastingly, Quins faced difficulties reaching the finals in the recent 7s competition and this was their maiden appearance in the season’s final.

Kabras started the game strongly, and their opening try was scored by Kenya Simbas centre, Bryceson Adaka. However, the conversion attempt by Jone Kubu missed, leaving the score at 5-0 in favor of Kabras.

Quins fought back and managed to score a try through Lucky Dewald, closing the gap on the scoreboard.

In the dying minutes of the game, Quins earned a penalty, giving them a chance to level the scores. Nevertheless, Kabras’ defense stood strong, denying Quins the opportunity to capitalize on the penalty and secure the win.

With Kabras regaining possession, they smartly kicked the ball out of play to bring the game to an end. This strategic move secured their victory with a final score of 10-5, allowing them to celebrate their hard-fought triumph.
