The original Enterprise Cup schedule conflicted with the Rugby Super Series set for May 2024, prompting a shift in dates. The semi-finals will now take place on June 1, and the finals on June 8.

“UPDATE: The remaining rounds of the Enterprise Cup have been rescheduled. The quarterfinals will take place as originally slated for Saturday, April 27, 2024, with the semi-finals now taking place on Saturday, June 1, and the finals on Saturday, June 8.
“This is to allow for the Rugby Super Series which runs from May 4 to May 25 this year,” reads a statement by the Kenya Rugby Union.
This weekend, the Enterprise Cup enters the quarterfinal stage. Kabras RFC are expected to advance without playing, due to Strathmore Leos’ forfeiture.
