This development comes as Kisumu RFC gears up for the 2025 National Sevens Circuit, which kicks off with the Driftwood 7s at Mombasa Sports Club on July 26–27, hosted by Mombasa RFC. The circuit will conclude in Kisumu with the Dala 7s on September 13–14, a prestigious event hosted by Kisumu RFC an event that promises to draw regional attention and solidify the club’s presence in the national rugby scene.
The Brave Hearts have successfully maintained its top-flight Kenya Cup status for two consecutive seasons and looking ahead, the club will be hoping to capitalize on its recent success where in the just-concluded 2024/25 campaign ended dramatically with a 17-14 win over Nondies on the final day a victory that secured their place in the league and underscored their resilience.
