Nakuru Prinsloo Draw Released

Kenya Harlequin are the top seeds for this weekend's Prinsloo Sevens in Nakuru. Hosts and runners up last weekend Nakuru are second seeded with KCB and Strathmore third and fourth in that order. The equalising rationalisation of points for the sixteen team tournaments to come close to the twenty four team ones means there is no real advantage in winning the bigger events now. Due to the quality of a vast majority of the teams gracing the larger events, it was long overdue. The 24-team events will always have a strange twist of fate due to the method of qualification for the quarter finals and this time, the inclusion of an unseeded Mwamba side has done this. They are in Pool E with Masinde Muliro, Kisumu and Egerton. Masinde Muliro university have stunned all with their consistency to lie sixth overall in the standings, over fancied Nondies, Mwamba, Machine and several other sides. All in all, it looks set to be an exciting weekend of sevens rugby.

Pool A: Quins, Flames, USIU, Homeboyz
Pool B: Nakuru, Nondies, Blak Blad, KCA
Pool C: KCB, Mombasa Poly, Kabarak, Moi University
Pool D: Strathmore, Bungoma, Daystar, Siaya KMTC
Pool E: Impala, Machine, Silverbacks, Kenya Poly
Pool F: Masinde Muliro, Kisumu, Mwamba, Egerton.

I will post the order of play once I get it.
