The Western Region 7s Rugby School games quarterfinals failed to kick off with referees protesting over their unpaid dues.
The matches were scheduled to start on Saturday morning but were delayed due to the referees’ go-slow.
Western Region 7s postponed
Scrummage Africa understands that the games are to be postponed indefinitely until the issue is resolved.

The matches will commence in the quarterfinal stage once the referees’ demands are met, with organizers of Western Region Secondary School games having less than two weeks to ensure they produce two teams to compete in the Nationals.
All the big guns were in the quarters, with National and East African Champions Koyonzo High School in the first quarterfinal after an impressive run in the pools. They are set to tackle Kibabii High School from Bungoma County.
In the second quarterfinal match, Kimobo High School is set to play Musingu School. Kimobo will be chasing a place in the Cup semis to boost their chances of featuring in the Nationals after missing the 2023 edition.
