Kabras Sugar Rugby Football Club's scrum half, Brian Tanga, has been named by Kenya Rugby 7s side, Shujaa, head coach Kelvin Wambua, and is the only change that has been confirmed, replacing Chrisant Ojwang, for the HSBC Sevens World Championship Hong Kong Sevens, slated for April 17–19, 2026, at Kai Tak Sports Park.
Except for the dropped Ojwang, the squad largely retains the core that featured in the last two legs in Montevideo and São Paulo, a continuity that head coach Wambua has underlined as important going forward, and in addition, Wambua has also confirmed that George Ooro and Samuel Asati will continue as captain and his assistant, respectively.
With the inclusion of Tanga, those who have kept their positions are George Ooro, Kevin Wekesa, Vincent Onyala, Denis Abukuse, John Okoth, Samuel Asati, Nygel Amaitsa, David Nyangige, Festus Shiasi, Patrick Odongo, Gabriel Ayimba and Floyd Wabwire.
