Rugby Premiership leaders KOBs will look to maintain their lead at the top as the first round ends when they visit Impis at Makerere on Women's Day. KOBs are top of the pile and head to Makerere for the lunchtime kick-off nothing short of a bonus point against a side that has now gone three games without victory. The blue army welcomes Joseph Aredo back but the utility player will start in the midfield along with Daudi Ssemwami. The changes in KOBs backline show depth in the squad as Brian Ochan and Josiah Sempeke will pair up in the halfback and Paul Oyesigye comes in at left wing. Emmanuel Echodu returns as well to lock with Robert Aziku. https://twitter.com/KobsrugbyUg/status/1633331739983593472 In other fixtures, second-placed Heathens travel to Entebbe to take on Mongers while Pirates visit Walukuba in Jinja.
