The Kenya sevens head coach Innocent 'Namcos' Simiyu says the bubble training camp at Moi International Stadium Kasarani has been a success.
Simiyu has expressed his satisfaction with the teams preparation on the tasks ahead of them.'' The Camp has been really good and the boys are raising their hands in regards to the selection of the team that will be participating in Stellenbosch solidarity camp and we are quite happy with the players so far.'' Namcos said.
The team at the camp has so far had no injuries apart from key player Sammy Oliech who sustained his injury at the Dubai Invitational 7s and is set to be out for a couple of months. The lethal fly half was however not part of the team that was at the bubble camp in Kasarani.
``We are lucky not to have any injuries so far and the boys are really pushing themselves ,we have had a few rugby knocks which we are monitoring that involve Daniel taabu and Alvine Otieno but the rest are fresh and fit to play."The tactician Said.
