As the clock steadily ticks towards the start of the 2026 Federation of East Africa Schools Sports Association (FEASSA) games that begin on Friday in Morogoro, Kenyan teams are gearing up for battle against their neighbours.
Their mission in Eastern Tanzania is crystal clear, but the road ahead is long and fiercely treacherous, for Kenya will arrive in Tanzania with an unyielding mandate to successfully defend the overall regional gong. Kenya wrestled the coveted trophy from arch-rivals Uganda last year when the country hosted the games in Kakamega.
However, with no home advantage, a climate they are not used to and a wounded Uganda gearing up for battle, the Kenyan students face an acid test as they look to prove that last year’s victory was not a fluke.
