KCB RFC will be looking to assert their dominance at the Kabeberi Sevens as the fifth leg of the National Sevens Circuit gets underway at the RFUEA Grounds in Nairobi this weekend.
The Bankers have been in blistering form, reaching the finals of all four previous legs and lifting the Driftwood Sevens in Mombasa as well as the Christie Sevens in Nairobi.
Their consistency has seen them rise to the top of the circuit standings with 82 points, two clear of Strathmore Leos, who are on 80, setting the stage for a fierce battle at Kabeberi.
Head coach Denis Mwanja believes his side is primed for another strong outing saying, “The boys have shown great resilience and hunger throughout the circuit. Kabeberi is always a tough tournament, but our focus is on maintaining our momentum and executing our structures. Leading the standings gives us confidence, but it also challenges us to work even harder to stay ahead.”
The Bankers will parade a star-studded lineup featuring Vincent Onyala, Festus Shiasi, Stephen Osumba, Jenkins Kipruto, Brian Wahinya, Floyd Wabwire, George Ooro, Elvis Olukusi, with Emmanuel Opondo, all of whom are expected to play pivotal roles.
Their mix of pace, power and experience has been central to KCB’s success this season.
Team captain Bob Muhati echoed the coach’s sentiments, noting that discipline and teamwork will be key at RFUEA.
“We have a very competitive squad with depth and balance. Every player understands the responsibility that comes with wearing this jersey, and we are motivated to give our fans something to cheer about. Our goal is not just to compete but to win and consolidate our place at the top,” remarked Muhati.
With the series entering a decisive phase, victory at Kabeberi would not only underline KCB’s dominance but also give them valuable breathing space in the race for the overall crown.
Fans can expect the bankers to bring their trademark intensity as they seek to extend their fine run and edge closer to sealing the circuit title.
