Elgon Cup (women's)

April 09, 2024

The women's Elgon Cup was an annual competition held between the national rugby union teams of Kenya and Uganda. It ran parallel with the men's Elgon Cup, which has been running since 2004. The cup was competed for over two legs - one in each country. Home matches for Kenya were usually played at the RFUEA Ground, Nairobi, Kenya, whilst Uganda usually played their home matches at the Kyadondo Grounds, Kampala, Uganda.

History edit

In 2011, prior to the first leg, the Ugandan and Kenyan unions had agreed that the women’s Elgon cup would be a one off tie with the winners being crowned in Nairobi as the URU had insufficient funds to host the Kenyans in Kampala for the return leg. However, after the women’s game and the trophy being handed over to the Kenyans, the chairmen of both unions announced at the dinner that Uganda had secured late sponsorship and would be able to host the return leg that would determine the Elgon Cup winners [1]. However, Kenya refused to hand over the Elgon Cup trophy after the second leg, claiming that they were the 2011 Elgon Cup champions as the 2nd leg was just a test friendly.

After a 3-year lull, the Elgon Cup returned in 2019, with the Kenyan Lionesses hosting the Uganda Lady Cranes in the first leg of the Cup at Mamboleo stadium in Kisumu.
