Homeboyz Rugby Club chairman Mike Rabar attributed his club’s poor run this season to several factors mainly lack of finance and departure of key players
Rabar said they will retreat, make drastic changes to their setup, win the Kenya Rugby Union (KRU) Championship next season, and return to the Kenya Cup stronger
Rabar explained that they were unable to sustain a big squad at the start of the season with the playing unit reducing from 80 players to 40
Homeboyz Rugby Club’s relegation from Kenya Cup for the first time in 13 years is what hogged the limelight in a weekend that Menengai Oilers ended former champions KCB unbeaten run.
Winless Homeboyz were relegated after they handed Mwamba a walkover in their penultimate leg of the Kenya Cup, an indication that they won’t honour their last match against Kenyatta University’s Blak Blad on Saturday.
