Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>More than 70 teams have confirmed participation in the annual Amadi Open tournament this weekend at Maseno School.<\/p>\n

The tournament director Caleb Olang\u2019o said they expect more teams to confirm participation by Friday.<\/p>\n

“This tournament has attracted national and East Africa champions. We also expect seasoned schools that have in the past won various titles. It is like a National Secondary Schools Games,\u201d said Olang\u2019o.<\/p>\n

Olang\u2019o, who is Maseno School\u2019s sports director, said the tournament will feature basketball 5×5 and 3×3, hockey, rugby 15s and 7s, football, handball, volleyball, netball, table tennis, badminton, lawn tennis and chess (boys and girls).<\/p>\n

The tournament is sponsored by Equity Bank, Maseno School, CIC Insurance and Ciala Resort.<\/p>\n

In rugby 15’s National secondary schools rugby champions Butula will lock horns with 7’s champions Koyonzo, Nyanza champions Kisii School, former giants Kakamega High, St Mary\u2019s Yala and St. Peter\u2019s Mumias.<\/p>\n

Others are Musingu, Vihiga High, Moi Forces Academy, St Anthony\u2019s Kitale and Kabianga High among others.<\/p>\n

Kisii School coach Lee Arstone said: \u201cWe want to go there and defend our title which we won last year. This will be a good platform to gauge the boys ahead of the season.\u201d<\/p>\n

In boys\u2019 football, St Anthony\u2019s Kitale are favourites to lift the title but will face opposition from rivals Goseta, Musingu, Agoro Sare, Ebwali, Kakamega High, Serani, St Mary\u2019s Yala and Nyanza champions Agoro Sare.<\/p>\n

Maseno University and Ramogi Institute of Advanced Technology have also confirmed their participation in the annual tournament.<\/p>\n
