INTRODUCTION
Molo Simbas Rugby football club is a fully registered club in Kenya with the
Registrar of Sports pursuant to Sports Act 2013 and the subsidiary legislation
No 25. We play in the nation-wide (regional/grassroots league) rugby league in
Kenya. We are also passionate about developing school to community club
links, providing youth with an opportunity to continue their involvement in
rugby after high school.
Over the years, Molo RFC have initiated and implemented a Player Reach out
Programme (PROP) in our community, which has been a success both for the
club and the schools in Molo. Founded 12 Years ago, Molo Simbas Rugby have
been working with secondary schools and neighboring communities both for
humanitarian/charity work as well talent development. The PROP programme
involves intensive training and rugby coaching, leading to participation in the
league, the national 7’s circuit and invitational tournaments throughout the
year.
The club is organized in three arms as follows;
1. Management (comprising of former players)
2. Playing unit (U15, U18 and Senior)
3. Partners
The club has 55 players across all levels registered.
