After Kenya Prisons women’s team success in the just concluded Africa Club Championships, their male counterparts have intensified training at the Nazarene University ahead of the men’s continental club event starting on April 22 in Morocco.
Unlike their women counterparts who trained at the open gymnasium at Nyayo prior to the big show, Prisons men’s side which has continued to remain the shadows of the ladies, will have the privilege of using an indoor gymnasium ahead of their trip to Morocco. The team’s new coach Gedion Chenje said he will try his best to ensure Prisons team emulate their women team. “Our girls have put us under a lot of pressure to do what they have done. We are going to do our best and ensure we go past the quarters this time round,” he said. Prisons made their debut in 2009 where they reached quarter-finals. The national champions have strengthened their squad by signing of two players. Chenje said the new players have jelled well with the others and they expect them to play a big role in the continental show.
