Greensharks face Sailors as action resume in hockey league

Also, the weekend will witness packed action with two bottoms placed teams facing each other in the women league.

JKUAT who are at the bottom of the league with no points will be hoping to get their first point after losing their two matches against Strathmore University and Telkom when they face Kenyatta University students who are second from bottom with only one point.

KU who drew their first match against Sliders before losing to Lakers and Amira Sailors will take their tally to four should they win against their fellow university students.

Defending champions Telkom who are top of the seven team league  will have a quiet  weekend though their coach Judy Apioh believes they have what it takes to defend the gong again.
