SportPesa Sponsors National 7s Circuit 2025
Leading online gaming firm SportPesa announced a 15 million (116.207,00 US Dollar) title sponsorship package for the 2025 National Sevens Circuit (NSC) taking place across five towns from July to September.
The sponsorship, renewed for the third consecutive year, will see the gaming giant retain the title sponsorship with the circuit once again being named the SportPesa National Sevens Circuit.
Speaking during the launch held at the Kenya Rugby Union (KRU) headquarters at the RFUEA Grounds, SportPesa Public Relations and Advertising Manager Willis Ojwang reiterated the firm’s commitment to supporting the local action on top of their existing sponsorship with the men’s national rugby 7s side.
“On behalf of SportPesa, our commitment to rugby goes without saying. Our CEO Ronald Karauri says no one does sports better than we do. For 3 years in a row, SportPesa has been not only part and parcel of supporting the national rugby team but also the local circuit and the impact has been unmatched,” he said.
During the launch, Ojwang also announced an exciting package that will see the sponsorship cater for top-notch livestreaming of the action in all six legs which will help viewers from around the world to follow the action and give exposure to players.
“Last year we had an existing structure but this year we are working on the livestream and broadcast area. For the first time, we will have a streamlined livestream experience just to expose the players and to cater to all the fans worldwide,” he announced.
KRU Chairperson Harriet Okatch expressed gratitude towards SportPesa for walking the journey with rugby and for coming on board as the sponsors for the circuit.
“Your support couldn’t have come at a better time. This circuit marks the beginning of our journey to qualify both our men’s and women’s teams for HSBC Tier 1 status next year. We are more than confident than ever that Kenya will rise again on the global stage,” she noted.
KRU Director of Rugby Paul Odera emphasized on the importance of the circuit which will be used as a pathway to the national teams.
“It has been exciting and interesting to prepare for this year’s circuit which began with a seminar with national team coaches and players on expectations for them on pathways to the national team.”

Springbok Casino Presents “Wild Galaxy Month” with 25 Free Spins on Prosperity Pots
This May, SpringbokCasino.co.za celebrates Star Wars Day with Wild Galaxy Month, a cosmic new feature reimagining the savanna’s creatures as space-faring legends. May the 4th be with you and your 25 Free Spins on Prosperity Pots slot, available all month.
In Wild Galaxy Month, Springbok Casino compares five famous character types from the classic space-opera world to South African animals that carry the same energy in the bush. From bold young lions to wise old tortoises, each one brings its own style to survival—and the same is true for smart slot play. Knowing when to take a risk like a lion, when to wait like a leopard, or when to play the long game like a tortoise can make all the difference between a quick spin and a legendary win!
Lucky Skywalker and the young lion Yedi – Destiny favours the brave, but instinct separates the hero from the herd.
Dark Spots the leopard and the power of the hunt – True power is silent, focused, and impossible to read until it strikes.
Han So-low the meerkat and the art of looking confident – Confidence is half the battle—the other half is knowing when to duck.
Princess Lay-a the springbok and grace under pressure – Elegance under fire is a weapon sharper than any blaster.
Yodust the tortoise and the wisdom of slow power – Patience wins the longest war. The strongest moves are the slowest.
“Out here in the wild, legends don’t begin with dramatic music and perfect timing. They begin with instinct, chaos, close calls, and a little bit of luck. This May, we’re giving our players all four—plus 25 free spins on Prosperity Pots. May the wild be with you,” said Daniel Van Wyke, Casino Manager at SpringbokCasino.
Prosperity Pots: Lucky Coins from RTG transports players to a vibrant, golden-hued world of oriental charm, featuring 25 paylines, Wilds, Scatters and a random Lucky Coin Feature that unlocks multipliers or instant cash prizes.
