Kenya women's beach volleyball coach Sammy Mulinge is convinced he has a generation of players who can make it to this year’s Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan. 

“The players I have are new to beach volleyball and ready to stay on top of the game for years to come,” said Mulinge in reference to Yvonne Wavinya, Brackcides Agala, Gaudencia Makokha and captain Phosca Kasisi who qualified for the second round of the Africa Zone Five championships set for next month.
