United States International University of Africa (USIU-A) Spartans returned to the continental stage with a bang routing their hosts El Nasr Sporting Club 3-0 as the hockey Africa Cup for Club Championships (ACCC) began on Thursday in Ismailia, Egypt.

Natasha Nyokabi, Neom Kemunto and Lynn Mwangi were all on target as Spartans, who are chasing their maiden continental trophy showed no respect for their hosts.
