Net Navigators will be up to the task when the Kenya Handball Federation (KHF) league returns this weekend, coach Randy Ochieng has said.

Ochieng remains confident the team will reap maximum points from their upcoming three matches after a month's break occasioned by the general elections.

"We have three very tough games but we are up to the task. We had trained to play Rangers but it was canceled at the last minute. They have now been replaced by Water, which is too soon, but we are good to go," said Ochieng.
