The KRU Championship final will also b played at a new date

The 2021/2022 Kenya Cup title deciding final fixture will now be played on Saturday 12 March 2022, Kenya Rugby Union has announced.

Initially, the final matchup of the season was supposed to be played a week earlier on Saturday 5 March but the new dates were announced by the country’s governing body to allow for the honoring of previously postponed fixtures.

“The Kenya Cup final will now be played on Saturday 12 March. This follows the creation of a buffer weekend to enable the honoring of previously postponed fixtures. The buffer weekend on Saturday 5 March will see the Mwamba – KCB and Kabras Sugar –Nondescripts matches take place,” KRU announced on their website.

The Mwamba vs KCB matchday 4 fixture failed to be played after a stuck bus on the field of play saw no action take place while the matchday 5 that was to pit one time Kenya Cup champions Kabras Sugar and Nondescripts failed to take place due to Covid-19 complications.

Additional arrangements have been made for the completion of fixtures in the KRU Championship and KRU Nationwide Leagues, signaling a change in their title deciding fixtures as well.

“The KRU Championship final will now be held on Saturday 26 March,” the statement also read.
