The absence of the winger, however, will be an opportunity for his club rivals to grab the opportunity and prove themselves.
Mwamba RFC will begin their 2023 National 7s Circuit without winger Idriss Shariff.
Shariff has been ruled out by a damaged Achilles and has already undergone surgery, according to the club. The injury that will rule the winger out of the initial action of the season was sustained on Sunday during a training session.
The injury suffered by Kulabu, as Shariff is famously known, was not disclosed.
