This weekend, Kabarak University proudly participated in the 2025 Kenya University Sports Federation (KUSF) Nationals held at Kenyatta University. The competition brought together the best university teams from across the country, providing an opportunity for athletes to showcase their dedication, talent, and sportsmanship on a national stage.

In the heart of Nakuru, where rivalries run as deep as the Rift Valley, Kabarak University Team B scripted a thrilling chapter in the age-old football saga against our neighbors, Egerton University. A game that had everything—flair, fire, and a fair share of drama—saw Kabarak emerge victorious with a hard-fought 1-0 win, bagging the bragging rights and three golden points.

It was a high-stakes scrum of gratitude and camaraderie as the KCB Group Rugby Team, led by Vice-Chairperson Mr. Mwita Brian, made a courtesy call to Kabarak University. Welcomed at the university boardroom by Prof. Gladys Kiptiony, Director of DELT (Excellence in Learning and Teaching), representing Vice-Chancellor Prof. Henry Kiplangat, the delegation was joined by Dr. Justine Oguta, Kabarak Rugby Chairman, and Coach Leo Ngetich. The atmosphere was charged with respect and appreciation, much like a last-minute conversion kick under floodlights.

In a showdown that had the crowd gripping their seats tighter than exam-week tension, Kabarak FC, under the astute guidance of Coach Dr. Justine Oguta, proved that their home turf is sacred ground. Facing a fiery Chemogoch side, the boys in red and white refused to be humbled on familiar soil, sealing a pulsating 2-1 victory that sent waves of jubilation across the stands.

Today, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Henry Kiplangat, proudly received a collection of prestigious awards, embodying Kabarak’s pledge to fuel athletic dreams with grit, resources, and a relentless pursuit of greatness. With every game played, every race swum, and every match won, Kabarak athletes have once again showcased their skill, determination, and resilience, solidifying the university’s reputation as a beacon of athletic excellence.

Kabarak University's commitment to fostering well-rounded individuals was on full display this Wednesday as the university's male football team engaged in a captivating friendly match against Ulinzi Stars. This event served as a powerful testament to Kabarak's dedication to nurturing both academic prowess and co-curricular excellence.

Kabarak University has once again proven its excellence—not just in academics but also in sports. Our rugby team emerged victorious at the Kenya University Sports Federation (KUSF) National Championship, held at Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology on February 22-23, 2025. With determination and sheer grit, the team outperformed their rivals, securing the prestigious title and etching their name in history as the 2025 national champions.

Kabarak University continues to shine not only as an institution of academic excellence but also as a haven where talents are nurtured and celebrated. Beyond producing competent career professionals, Kabarak University has carved a niche for itself as a hub for holistic growth, where students excel both in the classroom and on the field.

This Saturday, January 27th, 2025, all roads lead to Kabarak University for an unforgettable day of sports and history in the making! The university is honored to host three major events on the KUSA calendar: the KUSA Rift Rugby Sevens, KUSA Rift Athletics, and the KUSA Rift National Qualifiers for Ladies' Football. These events promise to showcase the very best of talent, teamwork, and sportsmanship in the Rift Valley region.

A wave of celebration and pride swept through the Kabarak University School of Law Senate Room as the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Henry Kiplangat, hosted a heartwarming luncheon in honor of the university’s sportsmen and sportswomen. These remarkable athletes, who have carried the university’s banner with unmatched zeal and determination throughout the year, were lauded for their exceptional contributions.
