St Patrick's Segere dares Barding ahead of Siaya games

St Patrick’s Segere Mixed Secondary will be seeking to rewrite history as their football and volleyball teams prepare for the 2025 Siaya Sub County Secondary School Term Two games set to kick off at Ambrose Adeya Adongo Secondary School.

Segere are confident of making it to the Siaya County finals set for June 19^th at St Mary’s School Yala and their football coach Peter Juma believes they have a team that can challenge some of the best teams at the level.

In fact, Juma is daring defending champions Barding High School after being pooled alongside the former East Africa football champions in Group A alongside Unyolo.

Speaking to the Standard Sports, Juma said they have had promising results since they started playing in the zonal and division levels.

At the Mlaha Zonal stage, Segere lost only to Mbaga Mixed 2-1 as they picked wins against Siaya Central (1-0), Siaya Township (2-1), Mulaha (3-0) and drew with Boro (1-1) to finish top in the matches played in round robin format.

In the Boro Division, Segere drew 0-0 to Hono and defeated Kowet (3-1) and Bar Olengo (1-0).
