RUGBY International side part of Kabeberi Sevens pools as Kabras, KCB and Leos fight for title
KCB, Kabras Sugar, and Strathmore Leos have all been placed in tricky pools as all three clubs stand a chance of lifting the overall series title on Sunday.

The team has struggled in front of the net, managing to find the back of the net just once in their first five DStv Premiership games.
