The first leg of the 2024 Elgon cup was scheduled for this Saturday but was moved to the 9th of November this year in Nairobi Kenya, following a consultative meeting between the Kenya Rugby Union and the Uganda rugby Union.

The second leg which was scheduled on the 9th of November has been moved to the 16th of the same month in Kampala Uganda.

The Kenya Simbas lost to the Uganda cranes in Kampala last year but managed to run away with the victory in the second leg in Kisumu.

They hope to bag both legs this time round.

Head Coach Jerome Paarwater has retained his training squad that was active during the preparation for the Rugby Africa Cup.

The other change in the squad is that of Bryceson Adaka who will miss out on this Elgon Cup after sustaining an injury a few months ago while following World Rugby amendment Regulation 8 that focuses on National Team eligibility, Ntabeni Dukisa can now represent the country.
