28 May 2026 · Admin

Kenya Harlequins academy graduate Brian Ochieng has signed his first professional contract with the club, committing until 2028. The 19-year-old fly-half has been with the Harlequins academy since the age of 12 and has represented Kenya at U18 and U20 levels.

Ochieng made his first-team debut in last season's Kenya Cup quarter-final and impressed with his composure and game management. He is considered one of the most promising young talents in Kenyan rugby.

"This is a dream come true," said Ochieng. "I've grown up at this club and to sign my first professional contract here means everything to me. I'm ready to work hard and make the most of this opportunity."
