NAIROBI: Treu angry with Owila’s visa hitch

Paul Treu

Sevens head coach, Paul Treu, is disappointed that the new call-up Martin Owila failed to get his visa in time for the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games. The Nakuru eighth man, who was to make his Sevens debut in Glasgow, has been replaced by Nondies’ Biko Adema. He left Nairobi on Wednesday to link up with the squad in Glasgow. Treu promised to recall Owila for future Shujaa assignments. “It is disappointing for Owila not to be in Glasgow,” Treu told FeverPitch. “This was our last opportunity to test new players ahead of the new season and see how they cope with the demands of international Sevens.”
