Defiant Kenya 7s Team Vows Not To Play Under New Coach

Kenya 7s players have decided that they will not play under William Webster who was appointed as their new Coach.

The players are doing this in support of the former coach, Innocent Simiyu who was fired by the Kenya Rugby Union after he took responsibility for the concealing of the Brand Kenya Logo during Paris 7s.

In their response statement, the players admitted that it was a joint decision for them to conceal the logo and not one led by a single individual.

They also revealed that they are yet to receive their monthly earnings or the Brand Kenya appreciation which was paid to the Kenya Rugby Union.

“We love doing what we do and it is with so much pride that we don the national team jersey and represent our country on the International rugby playing platform. It is unfortunate that what appeared to be an internal matter has degenerated into uncalled for hostility and demonization of the players,” the players stated earlier.
