Kenya’s elite rugby sides Kabras Sugar and KCB have been paired apart in the race for the sixth edition of the National Rugby Sevens title scheduled for Sunday, September 14, 2025.

According to the draw unveiled by the Kenya Rugby Union this Sunday, September 14, 2025, Andrew Amonde’s team will face Daystar Falcons.

Christie 7s finalist, Menengai Oilers, will face 2024 Kenya Cup winners Kabras Rugby in another clash with a final berth at stake.

The Nakuru-based side stormed to the semis after a commanding 36-5 victory over Mwamba RFC 36-5 in the quarters.

Beldad Ogeta scored a brace to add to tries from John Okoth, Daniel Kipchirchir, Nelson Makhoha, and Alvin Khavoli.

Kabras secured progress after edging Nondies Rugby  19-5.

The Sugar Men approached the tie on a fine form after sailing through Group A, which comprised CUEA Monks, MMUST, and Nakuru RFC. 

They edged  MMUST 34-15 in the local derby to earn a dream start to the tie before extending the form to the second group tie against Makuru.

A 19-14 win over CUEA Monks sealed their unbeaten status from the group on Saturday, September 13, 2025.

Bankers -Leos rivalry

Meanwhile, KCB knocked out Strathmore Leos in a tense clash to win the 2025 National Division One Title.

KCB claimed a narrow 15-14 defeat to seal the overall Division One title as well as eliminate their arch rivals from the sixth series.

The scholars had only one task-that of stopping the Bankers- and despite battling valiantly and coming within touching distance of the target, fell in a close contest.

Experienced Kenya Sevenstar Vincent Onyala ghosted past Sammy Wafula to cross the while chalk at the far end to put bankers on an early lead.

Brian Mwendwa hit back for Leos two minutes later with a successful conversion, earning the Scholars a two-point advantage.

George Ooro converted for bankers after the restart as charges took a three-point lead.

The after fine exchange between Onyala and Festus Shiasi.

A resilient Strathmore team was not to be denied, with Wafula making amends for an earlier defensive indecisiveness to covert behind the posts.

 The seesaw encounter reigned with three minutes left on the clock. Andrew Amonde’s side, however, hit late through George Ooro, who came clutch with his second try from the bench.

The victory saw KCB win a record-breaking fifth national title in the history of the seven rugby.
