According to Nyanza Region Secondary Schools Sports Association Chairman Mr. George Oloo the matches were proceeding in earnest although their standard was low compared to previous years.
“After the disruption of games and sports by Covid-19, our schools did not get enough time to train their teams within the short notice they were given to prepare,” he said.
Nyanza Region Deputy Director of Education, Mrs. Ebby Kegode who graced the occasion lauded the learners for showcasing their talents and urged them to maintain the peace and discipline observed so far.
