Kenya Harlequin F.C. : ウィキペディア英語版
Kenya Harlequin F.C.

The Kenya Harlequin Football Club (Harlequins or Quins for short) is a Kenyan rugby union team who play at the top level of Kenyan rugby, they are holders of the 2010 Kenya Cup and 2010 Enterprise Cup. Harlequin players make up the vast majority of the 2011 Kenya national rugby union team.〔(Daily Nation )〕 The club motto "''Nunquam Dormio''" is Latin, meaning ''I never sleep''.
==History==
There was an earlier ''Harlequins R.F.C.'' in Nairobi which was formed in 1923 when the Nairobi District team decided, because it had become too powerful, to split and create two clubs, Harlequins RFC and Nondescripts RFC. It seems likely that the two names were chosen either in concert or one as a tongue-in-cheek response to the other as ''nondescript'' means ''lacking distinctive or interesting features or characteristics'' whilst harlequins are associated with bright colours and striking patterns. Nondescripts are still going strong, but this first Harlequin club lasted up to 1945. Photos exist of Harlequins playing against the Prince of Wales School during the war years. The current ''Harlequin F.C.'' did not (contrary to popular belief) rise phoenix-like from the ashes of the first, though it is logical to assume that it provided the inspiration for the name.〔Campbell (1960) pp92-93〕〔http://www.kenyarfu.com/KRFU%20DOCS/Kenya%20Rugby%20History%20Highlights.pdf〕
