Oilers end Kabras’ title defence, beat Dala Champions 12-7 in Kabeberi 7s quarter-final

Menengai Oilers ended Kabras Sugar's title defence with a 12-7 victory in the quarter-final of the 2026 Kabeberi 7s tournament at the RFUEA Grounds in Nairobi on Sunday. This marked the third consecutive Kabeberi 7s edition where Oilers had eliminated Kabras in the quarter-finals, following their respective wins in 2023 and 2024.

Kabras, who recently claimed the Dala 7s title in Kisumu, suffered a significant setback as they now find themselves in the fifth-place bracket, facing Daystar Falcons next. Oilers, on the other hand, progressed to the semi-finals, where they will face off against Strathmore Leos. Meanwhile, Kenya Harlequin will take on KCB Rugby in the other semi-final, with the winners of both ties advancing to the final.
