Mombasa Rugby lands Sh4.5m deal in Kenya Cup promotion push

The sponsorship funds will support the club’s daily management and match operations, including team travel, accommodation, meals, equipment and other match-day expenses.

Mombasa Sports Club Rugby has secured a Sh4.5 million sponsorship deal with Mitchell Cotts Freight Kenya Limited in a major boost to its campaign to return to the Kenya Cup.

The three-season partnership, covering the 2026/27, 2027/28 and 2028/29 seasons, will see the logistics company serve as the club’s title sponsor, providing Sh1.5 million annually.

The deal expands an existing relationship between the two organisations, with Mitchell Cotts having sponsored the club’s playing kit during the 2025/26 season.

Under the new arrangement, the company will occupy the front-of-shirt position on the club’s senior 15s and sevens playing kits, alongside match-day, digital and community rugby branding rights.

Mombasa Rugby chairman Rogers Otieno Lai said the funding would support the club’s efforts to regain its place in the country’s top rugby competition.
