Maseno Ladies team coach Sebastian Ochieng heaped praises for them saying education goes hand in hand with sports and congratulated them on the successful completion of their respective courses
“‘If they don’t complain then something must be wrong and if they aren’t motivated or their presence is not felt then forget about them’ This is the experience I have gained while dealing with ladies. They learn faster than men when in a conducive environment,” he told Scrummage Africa.
