All eyes and attention now shifts to Nakuru for the second leg of the Prinsloo Sevens in Nakuru, following the successful opening leg of the 2025 National Sevens Circuit at the Driftwood Sevens in Mombasa last weekend.
The tournament is scheduled for Saturday 2 nd, and Sunday 3 rd., August 2025 at the Nakuru Athletic Club in Nakuru County and promises another thrilling weekend of top-tier rugby action.
This year’s Prinsloo Sevens has once again received a major boost from Kenya Breweries Limited (KBL), through its flagship brand Tusker, who have confirmed a Ksh. 3 million sponsorship package in support of the event.
Tusker will serve as both the official alcoholic beverage partner and official entertainment partner, continuing the role it played at the Driftwood Sevens.
Of the total sponsorship, Ksh. 1.5 million will be channeled directly to Nakuru RFC, the host club to support tournament logistics and operations.
The remaining Ksh. 1.5 million will go toward enhancing the fan experience on match days including powering the official after party.
Head of Mainstream Beer at KBL Christine Kariuki said they are building on the incredible energy from Mombasa.
“The energy, the passion, and the sense of community we witnessed at the coast was everything we hoped for. Now, we turn our focus to Prinsloo Sevens, a tournament with deep roots and massive significance in Kenya’s rugby culture. Nakuru has always delivered iconic moments in rugby, and this year will be no different. Our sponsorship ensures fans get the full Tusker experience, thrilling matches, immersive brand engagement and the ultimate after party,” noted Kariuki.
She added that Tusker’s involvement in Prinsloo will match the energy seen in Mombasa and that Ksh. 3 million support will go towards logistics, fan experiences, and event visibility, including powering the official after party which, if Driftwood was anything to go by, is set to be a highlight of the weekend.
Nakuru RFC Chairman Aggrey Omiyo expressed his appreciation for the support and confidence ahead of the tournament:
“We are truly grateful to Tusker for coming on board once again to support Prinsloo Sevens. Their partnership plays a key role in helping us organize a well-run, exciting tournament for both the teams and the fans. Preparations have gone smoothly, and the team at Nakuru RFC has worked hard to ensure everything is in place. We’re expecting a strong turnout and a fantastic weekend of rugby here in Nakuru,” said Omiyo.
As teams prepare to descend on Nakuru, the competition is already heating up.
KCB Rugby will arrive in the Rift Valley on a high note after edging out Strathmore Leos 15–14 in a dramatic final at the Mombasa Driftwood Sevens.
The win earned KCB their first title of the season and an early lead in the overall standings while Kabras RFC claimed third place after a strong finish against Nakuru RFC, winning 21–10.
Off the pitch, fans can look forward to a vibrant after party experience at the Tusker Village which will be headlined by DJ Daqchild, Nakuru’s own DJ Silk and Hype Man Ballo as the MC for the night.
