Mwamba RFC have named a strong matchday 23 squad for their upcoming clash against Zetech Oaks set for GOAN Institute.
Up front, Ian Wamalwa captains the side from the front row at loosehead prop. He is joined by Bruce Shiemi at hooker and Jerry Okoth at tighthead, forming a solid front row tasked with laying the platform early.
In the second row, Amon Bwambok partners Roxy Suchi at lock. The back row features Alex Muyela on the blindside, Christopher Asira at openside, and Dauglas Opani anchoring the scrum at number eight.
At halfback, Charles Chege starts at scrum-half and will link play between forwards and backs, while Gideon Makumi takes charge at fly-half, expected to control territory and dictate tempo.
