The coaching trio has selected a squad of 14 players who will proudly represent Wafalme Stars in their quest for victory.
Head Coach Gideon Tarus, supported by Assistants Coach Elisha Aliwa and Denis Mokua, has unveiled the official Wafalme Stars roster for the imminent 2024 CAVB Zone 5 African Games Qualifiers. The coaching trio has selected a squad of 14 players who will proudly represent Wafalme Stars in their quest for victory.
Regrettably, Outsider Hitter Sila Kipruto and seasoned Libero Player Sam Juma did not secure positions in the final lineup. Juma, in particular, faced the unfortunate setback of an injury sustained during a recent build-up match.
This untimely injury has ruled him out of contention for the upcoming qualifiers scheduled to take place in Egypt later this month.
Despite the challenges, the coaching team expresses confidence in the chosen 14 players, who will carry the Wafalme Stars banner into the highly anticipated tournament. The team is determined to give their best performance and compete for the ultimate prize.
