With less than two years of existence the multimedia hand ball team team has played several games won some and lost others. The team has previously been subjected to stiff competition in the year 2011 during the KUSA (Kenya University Sports Association) games.

They played well but were defeated in the quarters keeping in mind that they were still very young at the game playing against other universities which have had years of experience.

The team has had its challenges as their captain Mr. Hazel Onono an engineering student says majority of their team members go on long holiday from January to April which paralyzes the team as the remaining students can not make half the team required. This breaks have been a great challenge when it comes to the leagues they play especially KUSA games where they sometime get them halfway or start early and fail to finish them.

Mr. martin Alunde who is now their coach says all hope is not lost as the team is now preparing for the upcoming KUSA games. In preparation the team has requested several team for friendly matches and this weekend on Saturday they are going to play against Mamba a team from Kaloleni at kaloleni shopping center. the team also hopes to get more teams who they can compete against as part of their training. by Paskalia

MISERY OF THE MMU BASKETBALL TEAM

If you have ever played basketball in a rough ground or worse enough having to practice in one court when you are the whole team and each player using their own basketballs in that one basketball court? Am guessing some of you have and others have not. One thing for sure is that it isn’t that much of fun and those who have gone through such an experience can second me on that. For a university its more embarrassing to have their basketball players go through such a state which if it was at a high school; well am not degrading high schools but will all know am saying the truth; will be much better. So I am literally pitching for the players right now.

As a student in the school I would say it’s very awkward how since the school’s students center was engulfed in flames last semester, till now the school has made zero effort to fix the place. Makes you wonder why the hell are they preserving the place. It isn’t a RUIN. Okay, back to basketball. The school main basketball court is found at the MMU RUIN if I may call it and the gates of the place have been shut closed. So the players have been forced to go and do the training at a court behind the girl’s hostels. Out of negligence the court has grew grass and it is paved so when you dribble the ball, the chances coming back to your hands are ummm! 60% and I am being generous here with my fury the administration.

I think someone in the school is seriously drooling at their desk because with the basketball team performance it’s a miracle who the keep winning at such an environment. So the sports official in the school should really chip in and fix the issue ASAP!
