NAIROBI Blackhawks Andrew Shaw Jersey , Oct. 23 (Xinhua) -- Kenya could fail to host the regional soccer tournament, CECAFE Senior Challenge Cup, after the country's government said Wednesday it had no funds to inject in the annual tournament.

Cabinet Secretary for Sports, Art and Culture, Hassan Wario, told journalists in Nairobi that the State was not willing to fund the tourney since, "we cannot isolate football from other sports since they all need funding."

"We realise the importance of organising such a tournament but sadly, we cannot get involved in it at this time," Wario added.

With a month to go before the Nov. 27 kick-off, Football Kenya Federation (FKF) are yet to find a title sponsor and the government was earmarked as the potential source to underwrite the costs of the tournament estimated at 2.36 million U.S. dollars.

FKF boss, Sam Nyamweya, remained optimistic the country would still stage the oldest football tournament in Africa.

"We are set to make some announcements soon and inspectors have passed all the venues fit to hold the tournament," he added.

When contacted, CECAFE Secretary General, Nicholas Musonye, declined to disclose whether a contingency plan was in place should Kenya fail to host the showpiece.

"We will wait for the final word on this matter from FKF," Musonye said. The event is scheduled to be held in the Kenyan cities of Nairobi and Kisumu as well as Machakos and Mumias towns.

Renovation work is going on in Kisumu and Machakos stadiums with FKF ensuring the facilities would be in place in the next fortnight.

Last year, Musonye engineered the moving of the tournament to Uganda in a dispute with Nyamweya over sponsorship that was brought to the attention of Confederation of African Football.

The Calgary Stampeders used a solid all around game from running back Joffrey Reynolds to beat the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 31-23 at McMahon Stadium in weekend CFL action. The victory evened the Stamps record at 3-3 on the season. The Blue Bombers dropped to 2-4 with the setback.

Reynolds ran one touchdown and caught another to lead the Stamps offensive attack. After the game, he received some heavy words of praise from veteran CFL signal caller Henry Burris:

“Joffrey, he’s been an animal. He’s a proven professional. To me, he’s the best running back in the league and he shows it game in and game out.”

Reynolds displayed impressive humility as he accepted Burris compliment with the sort of grace too often absent from modern athletes:

“Any time that you can be mentioned with great players in this franchise and in this league, you’ve got to be happy about that. I’m just trying to play good football and just help us win games.”

Winnipeg running back Fred Reid rushed for a pair of touchdowns, but insisted that his team needs to compete for 60 minutes if they want to win games in the CFL:

“We have to play four quarters. The slow start hurt us. We played hard and came back in the second half. I wish we could have pulled it out. We have to keep fighting.”

Calgary safety Wes Lysack praised the competitive toughness of the Blue Bombers:

“Give credit to them. They gave us a heck of a fight, but we found a way to get a win. Wins are hard to come by in the CFL.”

Winnipeg will return home on Saturday to face the CFLs best team, the Montreal Alouettes. The Stampeders travel to Edmonton for a Thursday night game against the Eskimos.
