Focus shifts to Enterprise Cup after riveting league campaign

With Kenya Cup having come to a close last weekend,  focus shifts to knockout rugby when the Enterprise Cup kicks off on April 14 with four pre-quarterfinal fixtures on the cards.

Menengai Cream Homeboyz host Harlequins in the pick of the pre-quarterfinal rounds on Saturday, April 14, the winner of the tie playing away to Nondescripts in the cup quarters a week later.

Resolution Kisii host Stanbic Mwamba at the Gusii Stadium, the venue of their shock 18-12 Kenya Cup win against the same opponent on February 3. The winner of this match faces defending champions KCB in the quarterfinal on Saturday 21 April.

Blak Blad will host Regional Logistics Mombasa, Kabras Sugar awaiting the winner in the quarters, while Strathmore Leos host Top Fry Nakuru

Champions KCB, beaten finalists Kabras Sugar, Resolution Impala Saracens and Nondescripts were handed byes to the quarterfinals.

Nondescripts benefited from the pick of the draw and replaced Homeboyz in the quarters after the Deejays forfeited their bye after fielding an ineligible player in last season’s semifinal loss to KCB.
