Get Ready For A Rugby-filled Weekend

This year’s Prinsloo Sevens, dubbed The Menengai Oil Prinsloo Sevens will take place on the 1st and 2nd of September at the Nakuru Athletics Club. The schools category of the event will take place on the 31st of August at the same venue.

The tournament is the third leg of the Kenya Rugby Union National Sevens Circuit. The event is named in honour of Pete Walter Prinsloo, the rugby veteran from South Africa who revamped the sport in Nakuru in the 1980s. Walter Prinsloo died from diabetes after losing his limbs and facing several other complications.

This edition is the sixth in the series and it is in honour of Walter Prinsloo’s efforts. It follows a very successful premier in October of 2007. There should be a lot of fireworks as the NSC engages into second gear with the Prinsloo Sevens. Entertainment will be provided by Homeboyz.
