Heros to Zeros


A year ago, Kenya were the toast of the Sevens world. From world beating performances over all teams in the circuit to now doing nothing. Last year they even got invited for the Abbotsford Rugby Sevens in Canada which they won with a substandard team and even got the MVP of the event. To crown it all, two of our players were invited to play for an international Samurai Select side that played in the moneyed Middlesex Sevens. Followed were endorsements for products like Nokia and others.

This year, I wonder. Are we going to defend the Abbotsford event? Have we been training for it? Are we training for the Commonwealth Games? I wish them well!

Kenya 7's will never be zero! We are a small rugby playing nation (by comparison not population) with our backs to the wall. We have consistently been in the top 10 in the sevens series and I doubt we are about to drop from there. We need to pick up our game to get into the top three or even win one tournament, but we are there!

Don't take my sentiments as a support of the Union, they are .*?+. But our boys do us proud!
