Shujaa Head Coach Innocent Simiyu has selected a  training squad of 15 players, all who were part of the larger Olympics training team. He has also included nine trialists in the set up as they kick off their preparations ahead of the 2021 HSBC Sevens World Series which kicks off on 18th-19th September with the Vancouver Sevens after which the teams will head North East to Edmonton for the second leg of the series scheduled for 25th and 26th September.

“Our team selection is based on the last squad performance up to Tokyo where we have retained 15 players and called up 9 trialists based on Kenya Cup performance. We will continue calling up more players for trials until we settle on the additional 9 players. The total squad numbers for this season is 24players as its a long season. We also have one foreign based player – Willy Ambaka who will join us based on his availability,” said Simiyu.

As it stands, the technical team’s focus is  on getting a strong team that will win a medal at the 2022 Commonwealth games in Birmingham and the RWC 7s in CapeTown.
