Shujaa have only managed just a point in the last two events with Tolouse 7s being the worst of them all as the boys only collected a point. In France, Kenya 7s journey ended with a 28-12 13th place semi-final loss to Japan. Since the beginning of the year, Kenya has not gone past the group stage after poor results in Malaga, Seville, Singapore, Vancouver and now Toulouse.
With only two rounds - in London and Los Angeles - remaining, the Damian Mcgrath led side will be looking to salvage the season before it's too late. Mcgrath was appointed on May 11 as a replacement for Innocent Simiyu. McGrath is expected to take be in charge of Shujaa for the next two years, and most importantly prepare the team for the 2022 Rugby World Cup Sevens in Cape Town, South Africa and the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris, France. Kenya has once again been placed in a tough pool ahead of the London sevens set for this weekend, Saturday May 28th & Sunday 29th at Twickenham Stadium, England.
