Tusker Uses CECAFA Kagame Cup in Kigali as CAF Confederation Cup Tune-Up

Kenyan champions Tusker are set to use the 2026 CECAFA Kagame Cup in Kigali, Rwanda as a crucial tune-up for their upcoming CAF Confederation Cup campaign. The tournament provides an ideal test against regional competition. Meanwhile, the 2026 World Cup hosted across the United States, Mexico, and Canada has provided significant lessons for East Africa ahead of the 2027 AFCON. At the same time, Kisumu RFC is aiming for a fresh start in the National Sevens Circuit, beginning with the Prinsloo Sevens in Nakuru this Saturday, following their relegation from the Kenya Cup. These developments highlight East African teams' preparations for various continental and regional competitions.
