Nyamira Girls High School is poised to defend their East Africa hockey girls' title as they head to the Federation of East Africa Secondary Schools Association (FEASSA) Games in Mbale, Uganda.

Despite relinquishing their national title earlier this year to Tigoi Girls from Western Kenya, Nyamira remain confident and determined to reclaim their glory on the regional stage.

The team’s captain, Jacinta Opondo, expressed the squad’s unwavering commitment to retaining the crown.

Nyamira Girls will face off against national champions Tigoi Girls, St Joseph Girls Kitale all from Kenya in the round-robin format alongside Sacred Heart Mushanga, Kakungulu Memorial, and Bweranyangi from Uganda.
