NAIROBI, Kenya, August 10, 2025 – The national women’s under 20 volleyball team qualified for the finals of the African Championships after walloping Egypt in Yaounde, Cameroon on Sunday night.

The Junior Malkia Strikers made light work of the North Africans, thrashing them in straight sets of 25-19, 25-19 and 25-23.

They will now meet Cameroon in the final set for today, after the hosts thrashed Senegal 3-0 in the other semi-final.
