Rugby fans can look forward to another thrilling event as the Kabeberi 7s, the fourth leg of the National Rugby 7s Series, kicks off in Nairobi. The eagerly awaited tournament will take place at the RFUEA Grounds from August 23 to 25, 2024, featuring Division One and Division Two men’s categories, as well as the women’s category.
Kabras Sugar, fresh off their victory at the Dala 7s in Kisumu, will compete in Pool A alongside Nakuru RFC, Strathmore Leos, and Impala RFC. The hosts, Mwamba RFC, are placed in Pool D with KCB, MMUST, and MKU Thika.
On Wednesday, Mwamba RFC received a significant boost of Kshs.4.25 million from various sponsors, including Kenya Breweries through its Tusker brand, a betting company, and CIC Insurance. Mwamba Club chairman Jason Braganza acknowledged the team’s recent challenges but expressed optimism that the sponsorship will help them return to their best form.
Additionally, the women’s competition will return for the second leg of the Kabeberi 7s.
