a) Tennis
Malezi School’s tennis team has not only made the school proud by lifting the main trophies in almost all tournaments they have participated in over the years, but they have also been of great service both to the Nairobi Province and to the country Kenya. Representing Nairobi Province Malezi School tennis team has brought the rest of Kenya to their knees, four years in a row at the Annual National Secondary School Ball Games.
- The team has represented the country in various competitions the most recent being the ITF Under 18 Junior Circuit tournament – 2007 in Burundi, Uganda and Kenya.
The team has achieved this because of their intensive training schedule which saw them visit Florida USA on the invitation of Serena Williams’ and Venus Williams’ coach Bill Murray and other professional US coaches whom they were privileged to train with. With such talent and determination even the US coaches were not surprised that Malezi School are the national champs!
