Kenyan Olympics team officials brief on Tokyo 2020 COVID-19 protocols - World News


2021-02-20 14:30:56 GMT2021-02-20 22:30:56(Beijing Time) Xinhua English
NAIROBI, Feb. 20(Xinhua) -- The entire Kenyan team to the Tokyo 2020 Olympics will be tested for COVID-19 72 hours before departure, immediately after arrival, during the Games and possibly before departure from Japan.
This is among the measures put in place to combat the global pandemic at the Summer Games that run from July 23 to August 8 amid concerns that the showpiece that was postponed from last year is still in danger of spiking COVID-19 infections in Japan.
Team managers of qualified teams from Kenya were trained on the Tokyo Games Playbook in Nairobi this week where the National Olympics Committee (NOCK) took the officials through what is expected of them during the global summer event that will be held amid the pandemic.

Kenyan women volleyball captain eyes Tokyo Olympic glory - World News


2021-02-19 11:55:54 GMT2021-02-19 19:55:54(Beijing Time) Xinhua English
NAIROBI, Feb. 19 (Xinhua) -- Nine-time African women volleyball champions Kenya are raring to give a good account of themselves this summer when the team returns to the Olympics Games for a third time in Tokyo.
The continental women volleyball powerhouse, known affectionately back home as the Malkia Strikers, earned their Tokyo 2020 Olympics ticket by finishing second at the 2019 African Championships to mark their return to the global sporting jamboree for the first time since Athens 2004.
With Egypt and Cameroon shattering their African dominance in recent years, Kenya are determined to improve on their 11th placing at both the Athens 2004 and Sydney 2000 Games when the women's volleyball competition spikes off in the deferred Tokyo 2020 Games start on July 24 in Japan.

African women's beach volleyball qualifier for Tokyo 2020 to be replayed
Monday, 1 February 2021
The Kenya Volleyball Federation (KVF) has reportedly successfully appealed for the replay of African women's beach volleyball qualifying matches for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
According to
Citizen Digital, the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB) has annulled the results of last year's qualifying event involving Nigeria, Zambia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Cape Verde and Kenya. 
The tournament, held in the Nigerian capital Abuja in March, was Group C in the second round of the African Volleyball Confederation (CAVB) Olympic qualification process. 
Kenya, DR Congo and Cape Verde all withdrew from the competition with COVID-19 concerns, however, leaving Nigeria and Zambia to automatically progress to the final round of qualifying.

Kenya will travel to Nigeria between March and April for the rescheduled championships.
The second round of the championships were held with only hosts Nigeria and Zambia taking part. Both qualified for the final round of the beach continental cup.
