The Kenya national U17 team has landed in Kigali, Rwanda ahead of the upcoming Cecafa U17 Championship.
The Oliver Page’s side is in Group A which also has South Sudan, Uganda and Ethiopia. The junior side will have to overcome the pressure and post good results especially after the U20 side faltered at the penultimate stage in the recently held championship in Tanzania.
After going through the group stage unbeaten, Kenya were finally eliminated by eventual winners Uganda in the semi-finals.
The Rising Stars were also defeated by South Sudan in the third-place playoffs and that means the U17 side are going into the tournament just after the unwanted results from their senior brothers.
