The pools for the 2024 Driftwood 7s have been announced, with teams gearing up to compete for the title at Mombasa Sports Club on September 7 and 8, 2024.
KCB Rugby enter the tournament as the top seed, following an impressive performance at the Kabeberi 7s, where they claimed the title with a dominant 29-7 victory over Menengai Oilers.

Defending champions Kabras RFC find themselves in a tough group with league leaders Kenya Harlequin, Nakuru RFC, and Mwamba in what is already being dubbed the “pool of death.”
