Kenyan club sides booked early passage to the last four of the Kenya Cup Volleyball Championships after KCB swept Postbank 3–0, while Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) overturned an opening-set deficit to defeat Kenya Defence Forces 3–1. Kenya Prisons also advanced, confirming a semi-final line-up set for 12–13 July. Results were less encouraging for the national sitting-volleyball teams at the Africa Para Volley Championship in Nairobi. Rwanda overpowered Kenya’s women 25-13, 25-16, 25-18 to take a 2–0 lead in their best-of-five series, leaving the defending continental champions one win from a fourth straight title. In the men’s draw, Kenya fell 3–2 to Algeria on the opening day but will face Rwanda on Sunday needing a victory to keep World Championship qualification hopes alive.
