The National Sevens Circuit is making a return after a two-year hiatus due to Covid-19 pandemic.
The tournament is played in honour of founding member George Mwangi Kabeberi who passed away in 1986.
The significance of the tournament has been expanded to honour Mwamba club members who have died in the years since, including Leeroy Okara, Absalom Mutere, Abedeen Shikoyi, Jimmy Owino and Victor Wayodi.
