Long-Serving Tolbert Onyango Leaves Uganda Rugby Men’s 7s Head Coach Role

Tolbert Onyango has stepped down from his position as head coach of the Uganda Men’s Rugby 7s national team, Uganda Rugby Union (URU) has announced Wednesday evening.

Onyango called time on his second stint as head coach after ten years.

He led Uganda through a period when the 7s national team was the goose which laid URU’s golden egg.

Thank you Tolbert Onyango!

After 10 years of dedicated service to the Uganda Sevens National team, Coach Tolbert is stepping down.

A remarkable track record including 2x Rugby World Cup 7s appearances, 4x African 7s Championships, and more.

During this stint, Uganda won four Rugby Africa 7s champions (2016, 2017, 2022, 2024) and an African Games gold medal (2024).

Onyango’s final trophy with the national team was the inaugural Kampala International 7s won at Kings Park this year.

His final tournament was the 2025 Rugby Africa Men’s 7s in Mauritius where Uganda finished fifth.

Onyango recently joined Heathens Rugby Club as the head coach, with whom he has already won a silver medal in the national 7s series and two Cup Finals
