Updated on 07/01/13 | By BRIAN AYIEKO
The Kenya national basketball teams commenced training last weekend in preparation for the forthcoming Zone 5 African Cup of Nations qualifiers that will be held in Tanzania later this month.
Former international Peter Kiganya who is one of the national women team coaches says it is important to ensure all players understand the instructions given to them since having come from different teams, all players have different playing patterns.
“At this point it is important for the players to grasp instructions. That will be one of our main factors in selecting the final squad.” He said.
“However, so far the players are all responding very positively in training and this is a very good sign. I am confident of a positive performance in Tanzania.” He adds.
The final team is expected to be named this Friday.
