NAIROBI, Feb. 7 -- Kenya will travel to Bangui, Gambia for the second phase of the Confederation of African Volleyball (CAVB) beach volleyball Olympic qualifiers in March.

Coach Sammy Mulinge is upbeat his side will sail through from the five-team Group C competition slated for March 12-16 along with hosts Gambia, Mauritius, Botswana and South Sudan.
