Despite losing close to six players, Anguma believes that his team is still strong for duty.

Elgon Wolves head coach Steven Anguma is not shaken after the Uganda Rugby Union ordered a replay of their Championship Playoff semifinals against Warriors.

The Mbale-based club had won the contest 15-10 but URU found them guilty of using ineligible players from Kenya.

The union then nullified the results and ordered for a replay that will be played on Saturday at the Dams Water,

Despite losing close to six players, Anguma believes that his team is still strong for duty.

“We would’ve asked for the players to be cleared officially but we believe that the remaining boys are equal for the task,” he told Pulse Sports.

“Our aim from the first day was to add the upcountry rugby on the big table, and this is a chance for us to show that there’s talent in the other parts of the country that needs to be groomed,” he added

The match will kick off at 3 pm.
