Kenya finished second at the Rugby Africa Women's cup to qualify for the WXV 3 alongside Ireland and Kazakhstan scheduled to take place this October.
The CS suggested that the best approach to this is nurturing the young talent. Namwamba promised that the Ministry will be intentional in supporting youngsters in their mission to cement their place in the world of rugby.
"The surest way of returning Kenya's rugby to the elite table is by going back to basics and nurturing young talents.
We are going to be intentional and deliberate in tapping the raw talents from our young players to aid our mission of getting back to the elite table,” Namwamba said.
He added that the upcoming World U20 Trophy to be held in July will be a good platform of identifying the budding talent and ensuring the Ministry supports the juniors fully.
I want to give you my full assurance and the government's support to actualize this dream of getting Shujaa back to where they belong, starting with the upcoming U20 games," Namwamba added.
