Chipu will be up against strong teams from Scotland, Hong Kong, Samoa, Spain, and Uruguay.
Team Manager Paul Mutai has maintained that everything is on course and the young squad is psyched up.
“The team has been preparing well as we work towards next month’s tournament. We have retained a core of the squad that was selected for the Barthes U20 Trophy.
"However, there are six new call-ups to the wider training squad that will be whittled down to the final squad of 28 ahead of the tournament,” Mutai said.
The six new players include Ian Nyandusi, Spencer Tayghan, Anthony Okoyo, Rodgers Omanyi, Nickson Shevei and Victor Wabuto.
