Homeboyz Rugby Football Club is a Rugby Union club based in Nairobi, Kenya which currently plays in the Kenya Cup, the highest level of Kenya Rugby.
Founded in 2009, Homeboyz Rugby had a stint in the 2010 National Sevens Circuit playing in three of the five tournaments in the circuit and the Eric Shirley Shield, which they won in their inaugural year. Homeboyz were crowned champions after a win against Kisumu RFC at the University of Nairobi grounds.[1] The team suffered some minor setbacks in not being allowed to play in the Kenya Cup league due to some technicalities. However this didn’t last long as the team went ahead and retained the Eric Shirley Shield trophy in 2011 to secure a chance to play in the Kenya Cup league. The same year also saw Homeboyz win the knock-out competition, Mwamba Cup.
