Before the finals, eight  teams had played the matches in groups ‘A’  and  ‘B’ to sort out   qualifiers  of  the next stage.

The tournament’s sponsor, Journalist,Eric Obino who is aspiring for the area parliamentary seat in next year’s general elections challenged the youth with talents to nurture them.

According  to  Obino, sports talent had turned out to be a source of  employment and income at a time formal jobs were increasingly becoming scarce.

The journalist pledged to empower youths in groups instead of  advancing  handouts to individuals and added he was keen in intruding   more sports events for competition.

He appealed to the sportspeople to adhere to ministry of health protocols on  covid19 prevention so that they can be able to participate in the impending general elections.
