Pipeline coach Geoffrey Omondi has named a strong 14-member squad, with seven players set to make their debut in the competition. The team departs for Uganda Tuesday evening via road.
Newly appointed Kenya Pipeline women’s volleyball team captain Gladys Ekaru is determined to reclaim her spot in the national team, Malkia Strikers.
Ekaru, who missed the Paris Olympic Games due to maternity leave, will lead the Oilers in the Confederation of Africa Volleyball (CAVB) Zone V Clubs Championship, which serves off Wednesday and runs until March 4 at the Lugogo Indoor Arena and Old Kampala Arena in Uganda.
