Homeboyz RFC have booked a place in the National 7s Circuit top division after clinching the Embu 7s Division II title at Kangaru Girls.
A single converted try was all the Deejayz needed to edge past NYS Spades, who once again finished second after falling short in another final.
The Deejayz powered past MKU Thika 10-7 in the semis to secure a slot in the decider, having earlier dispatched KCA University 26-7 in the quarterfinals.
