Shujaa on Fire for the 12 position

The first day of the London 7s Kenya Shujaa have displayed a good game as they eye for the 2024 qualifiers with Kevin Wekesa shining by scoring two Hatrick tries in their games against Canada and Tonga. 
Kenya won the first game against Canada after a hard struggle but highly rectified their simple mistakes in the Tonga games to finalise the day as the victors.

   The weekend has been full of rugby action from the Africa women's Cup in Madagascar, the Mzansi challenge in Kenya and the World rugby qualifiers in London. Saturday was a winning day as the Kenya lioness won their first division match against Madagascar with a 29-20 lead, Shujaa also wining their first playoff game with a 24-19 against Canada and the Simbas also winning their Mzansi Challenge with a 48-7 against Zimbabwe in their first division of the Currie Cup.
