From Team DBA to Sweden.

For the first time ever, Kenya 🇰🇪 has won an Olympic team sport Gold medal. Junior Women’s Rugby team has won the rugby sevens at the Youth Summer Olympics in Dakar, Senegal.

[Eric Njiru ⚽️ @EricNjiiru]

Government says it will reward these girls with a Ksh250,000 Christmas token. That’s too little in my opinion. Once they turn 18 they should be given houses, university scholarships and Ksh1m each. It’s bigger than Harambee Stars winning three CHAN games.

Heartwarming news 🎉

16-year-old Christie Wanjiku received a hero's welcome at her school- Braeburn- on Wednesday after winning the first-ever team sport Olympic Gold medal for Kenya at the Youth Olympics in Dakar.

I still think Kenya hasn’t done enough to celebrate these girls. No other team in Kenya has even won an Olympic gold medal. If it were football, they would have been knighted by now.

I do hope we get less walkovers across #ESS, #KenyaCupWomen and #KRUNationwide this coming #15s season.

The playtime matters to the athletes.
Yes, there are factors that come into play...
But that's why we insist on having any form of revenue stream at club level.

The 2026 cohort are Uganda’s first-ever Africa Women’s 7s champions.

Know them, celebrate them, remember them!

The C in #WCW stands for Consistency when we talk about Uganda’s Lydia Namabiro. She was the Top Try Scorer at the just concluded Africa Women’s Sevens with 12 tries maintaining the spot from last year’s tournament.

Check out her tries:

@MsDamima All we need as Women in Rugby in Africa is unity! We can be stronger together.

[sophisticated fruit @dmango19]

Looking back at the games I started with at the beginning of this journey...

Wueh😅
Nimetoka mbali sana...

Still have a lot to learn,
Doing other sports helped a lot on how I do some things now.

To better coverage as the journey continues

Reason we need more money injected into rugby and specifically Womens rugby and Age Grade.

These girls are deserve alot more!

[my book is better than my tweets @MichellCClark]

Being open-minded doesn't mean treating every perspective as equally informed. You're allowed to listen carefully, examine the evidence, and conclude that someone is wrong. The willingness to reconsider your beliefs should coexist with the confidence to stand behind them.

[Damima Duffield @MsDamima]

@AdongSarah5 Thank you so much! I love passionate support and especially the kind that knows where women's rugby has come from so it was amazing to see... AND HEAR! 😂🫶🏾🇺🇬🇰🇪

🇰🇪 Huge respect to the team behind @Apex_KE254 for launching this new premier talent & brand management agency & signing a strong first cohort of #RugbyKE talent.

📌 @SamuelAsati - Olympian, Shujaa co-captain & KCB scrum-half
📌 @wahinyabrian1 – KCB fly-half
📌 @njoki_tito – Lionesses centre and
📌 Lioness Marvel Oswago.

In East African rugby, proper commercial management, personal branding and off-field support remain underdeveloped. Agencies that unlock athletes’ commercial potential while they are still in their prime are exactly the kind of infrastructure the game needs. Well done 👍

[Apex @Apex_KE254]

Talent, creativity and the hunger to push boundaries. Ladies and gentlemen meet Marvel Oswago
Welcome to the family Marvel 🫶

Sammy Washiali @BlakBladRC player has completely one of the most insane runs.
A journey that began with doing 20km runs now to 384.77km, from Nairobi to Mombasa in 5 days.
Hats off to him!
Hasn't gotten any recognition yet.
@SportyFMKE sth to talk about in the morning show.
