University of Tourism, Technology and Business Studies (UTB) women volleyball team will represent Rwanda in the women’s African volleyball clubs championship in Sousse, Tunisia from May 16 to 28.

The Kicukiro-based side was the champion of the women’s league last year after beating APR in the final game.

Philbert Mucyo, the UTB volleyball club Team Manager said they will start planning for the tournament soon. 

"We have a meeting on Monday to look at how the team will start preparing for the competition. We can start training in early April,” he said.

UTB along with APR will represent Rwanda in the Women’s African Club Championships.

Meanwhile, Rwanda Energy Group (REG) and APR are Rwanda’s representatives in the men’s edition of the tournament, and have both started preparations.

The men’s African Club Championship is scheduled for April 16 to 28, and it will also take place in Sousse, Tunisia.
