Kabras Sugar, the current leaders of the 2024 National Sevens Circuit, are looking to extend their winning streak as they headline Group A in the upcoming Kabeberi Sevens.
The team has already secured victories in the opening leg of the Christie Sevens earlier this month and the Dala Sevens held last weekend in Kisumu, positioning themselves as strong contenders for their third consecutive circuit win.
Group A, which features Kabras Sugar alongside Nakuru RFC, Strathmore Leos, and Impala RFC, promises to be fiercely competitive.
Kabras Sugar will kick off their campaign on Saturday with a highly anticipated match against Strathmore Leos at 9:20 am, shortly after Nakuru RFC and Impala RFC open the tournament at 9:00 am.
Kabras Sugar's squad is confident in their ability to maintain their dominance and will look to leverage their recent form to secure another victory.
